Hagen-Thorne Mesosigmoplication

Hagen-Thorn mesosigmoplasty is a surgical procedure developed by Soviet surgeon Ivan Eduardovich Gagen-Thorn in 1925. It consists of creating an artificial fold of skin on the abdomen using mesosigmoplasty - a method in which the skin of the abdomen is stretched and fixed on special frames.

Hagen-Thorn was known for his work in the field of abdominal surgery and developed several methods for treating abdominal hernias. He also developed new methods of plastic surgery and applied them in his practice.

The essence of the Hagen-Thorn procedure is as follows: a small incision is made on the patient’s abdomen, through which the hernial sac along with its contents is removed. Then an artificial fold of skin is created on the abdomen, which is fixed to a frame made of metal staples or wire. This frame provides support to the skin and prevents it from sagging.

After the operation, the patient must wear a special bandage that supports the skin and prevents its separation. For several weeks after surgery, the patient must remain in bed and avoid physical activity.

The Hagen-Thorn procedure is an effective method for treating hernias and other abdominal wall defects. It allows you to eliminate the defect and improve the appearance of the abdomen. However, like any other surgical procedure, it has its risks and can cause complications. Therefore, before undergoing this procedure, it is necessary to undergo a thorough examination and discuss all possible risks and benefits with your doctor.
