Combined Abdominal Dermolipectomy-Hernioplasty in Obese Patients and after Bariatric Surgery

Background: There are several procedures used to flatten and improve the appearance of the abdomen which are called tummy tucks surgery. The determination of whether a combined tummy tuck/hernia operation is possible will be determined by the size, type and severity of the hernia, the type and complexity of tummy tuck and surgeon's experience. A combined dermolipectomy/Hernia operation has many advantages; save money, save the time, pain, discomfort and recovery of a second surgery. The Aim of Study: Is to evaluate if hernioplasty combined with abdominoplasty is a safe procedure to the patients as regard complications, surgical results and quality of life.
