Abstract
We present the first case of mesh related infection caused by Achromobacter xylosoxidans after ventral hernia repair. After repair of a small paraumbilical hernia, the postoperative course was complicated by persistent discharging sinuses despite the removal of underlying polypropylene mesh. Removal of an intrabdominal omental inflammatory mass containing pus that showed growth of A. xylosoxidans led to the resolution of all the symptoms.Entities:
