Objective To evaluate the outcome of pedicle graft of greater omentum and polypropylene mesh in reconstruction of large defect of abdominal wall caused by surgical incision. Methods From 1994 to 2004, 12 cases of large abdominal wall defects were repaired with pedicle graft of greater omentum and polypropylene mesh after removal of abdominal wall tumor; the defect sizes of abdominal wall ranged from 10 cm×7 cm to 25 cm×17 cm. Results The abdominal wall wound in 12 cases were healed by first intention. After a follow-up of 1 to 5 years, no complications of abdominal hernia, infection and intestine obstruction occurred in all patients. Conclusion It is reliable to repair abdominal wall defect caused by surgical incision with pedicle graft of greater omentum and polypropylene mesh instead of peritoneum.
