[Restoration of the abdominal wall in generalized defects by an autoplasty method].

The clinical experience with surgical reconstruction of the abdominal wall in vast defects in 172 cases of big and giant postoperative hernias by means of modified autoplasty methods with the formation of the doubling with a deep superposition of aponeurotic-muscular grafts is presented. Good results allow the author to recommend the described autoplasty methods to the use in surgical practice.
