Résumé

The treatment of giant incisional hernia (IH) with loss of domain (LOD, IHLD) is considerably challenging due to technical difficulties and subsequent post-operative complications. These post-operative risks may be anticipated by calculating the abdominal cavity (AC) volume (ACV) and the IH volume (IHV) on the preoperative CT-scans, using the AC and IH dimensions (Tanaka's method) or using tridimensional volumetry (Sabbagh's method). These techniques are often time-consuming and require specific softwares. The aim of the present study was to develop a simple method to rapidly obtain the LOD-ratio on the preoperative CT-Scan.
