Abstract:
The case involving a 33-year-old patient is presented who developed a muscle hernia through a fascia late defect subsequent to removal of internal fixation devices from the left femur. Because primary closure of the fascia could not be achieved, an autologous dermis graft harvested from the margin of the skin incision was used. A firm closure of the fascial gap was achieved and the patient has no complaints. Having used an autologous dermis graft, we were able to avoid an alloplastic substitute.
