Preoperative Botulinum Toxin A to Facilitate Midline Closure in Large Chronic Ventral Hernias (Probhe)

Prehabilitation With Botulinum Toxin A in Complex Hernia: an Italian Prospective Study on Predictive Scores of Myofascial Release.

In patients with large hernias, chronic retraction of the lateral abdominal wall muscles, and visceral contents that are irreducible within the hernia sac, closure of the midline can be difficult or even impossible. Component separation techniques (CST), in combination with transversus abdominis release (TAR), increase the flexibility of the abdominal wall and facilitate fascial medialization. However, these techniques alter the anatomy of the abdominal wall and are associated with higher risks of wound complications, abdominal wall disruption, and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS).

Recently, the preoperative injection of Botulinum Toxin A (BTA) has been proposed as an effective form of chemical component separation of the muscles, or more precisely, chemical relaxation. It has been hypothesized that preoperative chemical paralysis of the lateral abdominal wall muscles through BTA increases abdominal wall compliance and facilitates fascial medialization, thereby reducing the need to resort to CST.

However, the current literature still lacks studies evaluating the impact of BTA on predictive scores for myofascial release and the correlation with intraoperative strategies.

干预/治疗
实验性的:Posterior Component Separation (PCS) with TAR after BTA injection.
Posterior Component Separation (PCS) with Transversus Abdominis Release (TAR) is an intraoperative surgical technique performed by the surgeon when a standard retromuscular repair, such as the Rives-Stoppa technique, does not allow for tension-free midline closure. In such cases, additional myofascial release is required, and PCS with TAR is subsequently performed to achieve adequate medial advancement of the abdominal wall components and enable secure, tension-free closure of the midline defect.
实验性的:Rives-Stoppa surgery after BTA injection
Rives-Stoppa repair is a retromuscular abdominal wall reconstruction technique used when primary fascial closure can be achieved without the need for additional myofascial release. It represents a less invasive approach compared to component separation techniques, such as Posterior Component Separation with Transversus Abdominis Release (PCS with TAR), and is performed in cases where tension-free midline closure is feasible using a standard retromuscular plane dissection.

大体时间
Improvement in Preoperative Indices Following Botulinum Toxin A Injection
大体时间:Enrollment, 4 weeks after BTA injection, and 12 months after surgery
Changes in preoperative radiological indices following Botulinum Toxin A (BTA) injection will be assessed using abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans. The Rectus-to-Defect Ratio (RDR) will be calculated on pre- and post-injection CT imaging; each 0.5-point increase in RDR is associated with an approximate 20% linear reduction in the need for anterior myofascial release (AMR). The Component Separation Index (CSI) will be determined on axial CT images using the aorta as a fixed reference point and the medial borders of the rectus abdominis muscles. Abdominal cavity volume will be estimated using the ellipsoid volume formula based on craniocaudal, transverse, and anteroposterior diameters measured on CT imaging. Pre- and post-BTA values will be compared to evaluate improvement in abdominal wall compliance and anatomical reconstruction parameters.

Association Between Changes in Preoperative Indices After Botulinum Toxin A Injection and Surgical Strategy Selection.
大体时间:until the end of the study
Two surgical strategies will be considered based on abdominal wall reconstruction requirements: (A) Posterior Component Separation (PCS) with Transversus Abdominis Release (TAR), and (B) Rives-Stoppa repair, performed when no myofascial release is required. For PCS with TAR procedures, the Posterior Bridging Ratio (PBR) and Anterior Bridging Ratio (ABR) will be assessed as the proportion of the peritoneal sac used as a bridge to achieve tension-free closure of the posterior and anterior fascial layers, respectively. The extent of ABR and PBR will be analyzed in relation to the preoperative effect of Botulinum Toxin A (BTA) injection. In particular, higher percentages (>50%) of PBR and ABR will be considered indicative of poor BTA efficacy, intermediate values (25-50%) of partial efficacy, and low values (0-25%) of good to very good BTA efficacy. The relationship between changes in preoperative indices after BTA administration and the selected surgical approach will be evaluated.
until the end of the study
