This document discusses abdominal wound dehiscence, providing definitions, epidemiology, causes, classification, clinical features, treatment, and prevention. It defines abdominal wound dehiscence as the separation of abdominal wound layers before complete healing. Risk factors include pre-operative issues like malnutrition or post-operative complications like infection. Treatment depends on the severity but may involve resuturing or supportive dressings. Prevention focuses on managing risk factors, using proper surgical techniques like tension-free closure, and avoiding post-op issues like infection.

Dear viewers,
• Greetings from “Surgical Educator”
• Because of the popular demand by viewers of the YouTube channel “Surgical Educator”, I have decided to create and upload videos on common surgeries.
• I have already uploaded videos on open and Laparoscopic Appendicectomy, Thyroidectomy, Modified Radical Mastectomy and open and
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy and Open inguinal hernia repair
• In this video today, I have discussed Laparoscopic Inguinal Hernia Repair- both TAPP and TEP approaches.
• However, these videos are not real surgeries but the theoretical aspect of operative surgery like going through an atlas of operative surgery.
• Along with these videos, I recommend you to watch real operative surgery videos as well and I will give a link for each surgery in the end of the video as end-cards, which I think will be very useful.
• This will give a very good opportunity for the surgical trainees to mentally rehearse various surgical steps in a sequential manner prior to actual surgery. You can watch the video in the following links:

Postoperative care & management after sui operationsWafaa Benjamin
Surgeries for SUI are not without hazards.
Proper preoperative assessment, patient counseling, meticulous postoperative care& early discovery of complications are the mainstays of management.
Voiding difficulty after anti-incontinence surgeries can become persistent and have a significant impact on quality of life.
Supra-pubic catheter & CISC should be added to our practice.
Careful surgical technique with avoidance of over-elevation might play a role in prevention of VD.
Laparoscopic management of acute abdominal trauma - Dr Keyur BhattDrKeyurBhattMSMRCSEd
Acute abdominal trauma is a very common situation to deal for any general surgeon. One must know how to deal with this and how laparoscopy is helpful in this.
Bladder injuries may result from blunt,Penetrating and Iatrogenic trauma.
Full bladder is more susceptible to injury than empty bladder.
Management varies from conservative to surgical aiming to directly repair the injury.
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is the current gold standard for surgical removal of the Gall bladder, particularly in benign pathologies. Hence, it is necessary to highlight some steps to accomplish this procedure successfully while avoiding pitfalls.

The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

Anti-ulcer drugs are medications used to prevent and treat ulcers in the stomach and upper part of the small intestine (duodenal ulcers). These ulcers are often caused by an imbalance between stomach acid and the mucosal lining, which protects the stomach lining.
||Scope: Overview of various classes of anti-ulcer drugs, their mechanisms of action, indications, side effects, and clinical considerations.
Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

3. Introduction
• Important cause of morbidity and mortality
among surgical patients
• Affects patients by increasing distress and
mortality; the attendants by increasing cost of
treatment; the surgeon for whom it is a
disturbing reality ; and the hospital resources
by increasing health care cost due to
prolonged hospital stay
4. Definition
• separation of the layers of an abdominal wound
before complete healing has taken place
• occurs when a wound fails to gain sufficient
strength to withstand stresses placed upon it. The
separation may occur when overwhelming forces
break sutures, when absorbable sutures dissolve
too quickly or when tight sutures cut through
tissues.
5. Epidemiology
• Occurs in 2% of
Laparatomies
• M:F=2:1
• All ages->>over 50yrs
• Commonest time of
disruption= 7-12 days
post operatively
• Emergency>>Elective
• Vertical
incisions>>>transverse
incisions
6. Epidemiology
Closure
• Mass vs. Layered Closure?
Incidence of burst –
layered closure > mass
closure
• Interrupted vs.
Continuous Sutures?
Interrupted suturing – low
incidence of bursts
• Peritoneal Closure or not?
Suturing the peritoneal -
not vital to prevent Burst
Abdomen
7. Cause of Disruption
• Increased Intra-abdominal Pressure vs.
Weakness of Wound
• Pre-operatively vs. Operatively vs. Post-
operatively
• Patient factors vs. Physician factors
9. Operatively
Causes of ↑ed IAP
• Excessive tissue handling
• Failure to decompress
grossly distends bowel
Causes of Wound Weakness
• Vertical vs. Transverse
incision
• Damage to nerves after
subcostal or para-rectal
incision
• Use of absorbable sutures
to close rectus
• Poor suturing technique
• Persistent leakage of
pancreatic enzymes
• Failure of asepsis
11. Classification
• Superficial and Revealed-
– When skin and stitches are removed with
separation of skin and subcutaneous layers only
• Deep and Concealed
– There is separation of all layers of the abdominal
wall with exception of skin
• Complete and Revealed (Burst abdomen)
– Protrusion of loop of bowel or portion of
omentum
12. Clinical Features
Symptoms
• Nausea
• Fever
• Local pain/Discomfort
Signs
• Serosanguinous (pink)
or blood stained
discharge
• Bowel or omentum
protruding through the
wound spontaneously
after removal of sutures
15. Non-operative treatment
• If patient is unstable and there has been no
evisceration
• Involves either gauze packing of the wound or
covering it with a sterile occlusive dressing
17. Non-operative treatment(cont’d)
• Vacuum Assisted Closure (VAC)
– Used in 10% of total patients
– Significantly reduces post operative infection
– Reduces the uses of antibiotics prescriptions
– Can be safely used in patients using anti-
coagulants
18. Non-operative treatment(cont’d)
• Wound may subsequently contract to closure
or if the patient’s condition improves, delayed
operative closure may be performed
19. Operative Treatment
• Resuscitation if shock (+)
• Reassurance
• Appropriate analgesics
• Nothing by mouth
• Nasogastric tube insertion and suction
• Antibiotic
• Cover the wound with saline soaked sterile towel and
transfer to OT
• Emergency operation for replacement of bowel and
re-suturing of wound
20. Operative Procedure
• Each coils of intestine are washed with normal saline gently
and thoroughly
• Return to abdominal cavity
• Clean the abdominal wall
• Re-approximated with through and through
monofilament nylon
• Buttressed by tension suture
• Abdominal wall is supported by many-tail bandage, Adhesive
plaster
• Post-operative -General build-up
-Treat/Avoid predisposing factors
21. Prevention
Preoperative
• Correct the precipitating factors
• Manage causes of increased intra-abdominal
pressure
• Omit medications like steroids if possible
• Prophylactic antibiotics
• GI decompression (Ryle’s tube suction) in case of
intestinal obstruction
22. Per-operative
• Reduce septic load –peritoneal toilet
• Choice of suture –non-absorbable suture for wound
closure
• Tension free closure
• Follow Jenkin’s rule in closing midline laparotomy
wound
– Mass closure technique (include peritoneum +
rectus sheath in closure)
– Continuous suture
– Suture should be FOUR times the length of the
incision and bites should be taken 1cm from the
wound edge at 1cm intervals
23. Post-operative
• Prevention of wound sepsis
• Manage causes of increased intra-abdominal
pressure and GI distension
• Urgent recognition and treatment of wound
dehiscence
• Follow-up
24. Conclusion
• Abdominal wound high mortality rate and no
single cause being responsible: rather it is a
multi factorial problem
