Image guided preoperative abdominal wall botox injection for large ventral hernia repair: A case series

This case series aims to explore the application of preoperative CT guided Botox injections in three different cases of abdominal wall reconstructions. Each of the three cases highlights the role of chemical component separation in achieving myofascial release and contributing to a successful surgical repair. The use of Botox in the preoperative planning of abdominal wall repair aims at creating a tension-free environment for midline closure and promoting an overall positive postoperative course for the patient. This case series presents as a valuable contribution to the different surgical approaches in abdominal wall reconstruction and the collaboration between Interventional Radiology and Surgery in treating such patients.
