[Treatment of large abdominal eventrations with an intraperitoneal stapled plate. Apropos of a series of 27 patients].

Treatment of 27 large abdominal eventrations by intra-peritoneal prothesis fixed by staples is reported. Only one recurrence (3.5%) in the post-operative period, the good results observed, absence of grave complication, and great simplicity of this procedure lead the authors to recommend the use of intraperitoneal prosthesis in the treatment of post-operative eventration with major loss of parietal substance.
