| dc.description.abstract | Surgical repair of f lank hernia is not routinely performed, due to perceived technical difficulties with the surgery and risk of recurrence, or the misconception that flank hernia is solely due to a denervation injury. Due to the rareness of f lank hernia in the literature, there is no general consensus on the best method of surgical repair. We present the case of a patient with a symptomatic large flank hernia following open nephrectomy, in which a hybrid technique of open and laparoscopic f lank hernia repair with sublaymesh and bone anchor fixation was successfully performed with good outcome. This case highlights the benefits of the hybrid approach, which allowed a laparoscopic assessment of the defect and adhesiolysis, followed by the open repair which enabled adequate mesh overlap, fixation to surrounding tissues and bone anchor fixation. | |
