The plication of the anterior rectus sheath is a procedure that is performed by most surgeons during abdominoplasty. A main concern is whether the correction of recti diastasis is really effective and if it is stable. In order to verify the position of the rectus muscle, a CT-scan was used in 14 patients who underwent abdominoplasty with rectus plication to compare the preoperative situation of these muscles with their position 3 weeks and 6 months postoperatively. None of these patients had had previous abdominal surgery. The recti diastasis was corrected with a two-layer 2-0 Nylon suture. A dynamometer was used to measure the resistance force of the anterior aponeurosis of the rectus. In all cases the CT data shows that correction of the diastasis was achieved completely after 6 months.
腹直肌前鞘折叠术是大多数外科医生在腹部整形术中都会进行的一项操作。一个主要问题是腹直肌分离的矫正是否真的有效以及是否稳定。为了确定腹直肌的位置，对14例行腹直肌折叠术的腹部整形患者进行了CT扫描，以比较这些肌肉术前的情况与其术后3周和6个月时的位置。这些患者均未接受过腹部手术。采用双层2-0尼龙缝线矫正腹直肌分离。使用测力计测量腹直肌前腱膜的阻力。所有病例的CT数据显示，6个月后腹直肌分离得到了完全矫正。
