(2014). Porcine acellular dermal matrix for delayed abdominal wall closure after pediatric liver transplantation. Pediatric transplantation, 18(6), 594–598. https://doi.org/10.1111/petr.123191397-314210.1111/petr.12319https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/115998Children are one of the groups with the highest mortality rate on the waiting list for LT. Primary closure of the abdominal wall is often impossible in the pediatric population, due to a size mismatch between a large graft and a small recipient. We present a retrospective cohort study of six pediatric patients, who underwent delayed abdominal wall closure with a biological mesh after LT, and in whom early closure was impossible. A non-cross-linked porcine-derived acellular dermal matrix (Strattice™ Reconstructive Tissue Matrix; LifeCell Corp, Bridgewater, NJ, USA) was used in all of the cases of the series. After a mean follow-up of 26 months (21–32 months), all patients were asymptomatic, with a functional abdominal wall after physical examination. Non-cross-linked porcine-derived acellular dermal matrix (Strattice™) is a good alternative for delayed abdominal wall closure after pediatric LT. Randomized controlled trials are necessary to determine the best moment and the best technique for abdominal wall closure.engjournal article1399-3046https://doi.org/10.1111/petr.12319https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/petr.12319restricted access616.12liver transplantationherniapartial liver graftspediatric transplantationCirugía3213.14 Cirugía de Los Trasplantes
