J Minim Access Surg. 2018 Apr-Jun;14(2):161-163. doi: 10.4103/jmas.JMAS_103_17.

Abstract

A 63-year-old man with a history of a conventional cholecystectomy was referred to our department for an incisional subcostal hernia and chronic back pain. Physical examination also showed an umbilical hernia and diastasis recti measuring 6 cm that was confirmed with a computed tomography scan. Subcutaneous video-endoscopic repair was done repairing all defects simultaneously.

Keywords: Diastasis recti; endoscopic rectus plication; mini-invasive.
