Value of the omentum in the repair of thoracic parietal defects
Valor del epiplón en la reparación de defectos parietales torácicos
Resumen:
An experimental evaluation is performed upon the thoracic transposition of the greater omentum used as a plastic element in the repairment of partial or total defects in the thoracic wall, in 22 dogs. In 12 partial defects ( skin and muscle, up to the costal plane), results were very good. In 10 total defects (including costo pleural plane), the omentum was attached on a synthetic mesh circumferentially sutured to their rims. In these cases, primary aerostasis was difficult and there appeared a subcutaneous emphysema around the lesion, but the later evolution was also good.
Se realiza la valoración experimental de la trasposición torácica del epiplón mayor, usado oomo elemento plástico en la reparación de defectos parciales o totales de la pared del tórax en 22 perros. En 12 brechas parciales (cutaneomusculares, hasta el plano costal), los resultados fueron muy buenos. En 10 brechas totales (incluyendo plano costopleural), el epiplón se fijó sobre malla sintética suturada circunferencialmente al defecto. En ellos la aerostasis primaria se mostró dificultosa y se produjo enfisema subcutáneo perilesional, pero la evolución alejada fue igualmente buena.
