Polcz M, Holland A, Lorenz W, Ayuso S, Scarola G, Ku D, et al.
Hernia . 2025 Feb; 29(1):96. PMID: 39966189
Introduction: Preoperative BTA assists with fascial closure during abdominal wall reconstruction. Its efficacy in subxiphoid (M1) hernias has been questioned with high rates of component separation techniques (CST) despite BTA....

Holland A, Lorenz W, Ayuso S, Katzen M, Kundu S, Rosas D, et al.
J Am Coll Surg . 2025 Feb; PMID: 39907236
Background: Obesity is directly correlated with wound complications and recurrence following open ventral hernia repair (OVHR). Preoperative weight loss (WL) mitigates these risks, improves overall health, and reduces intraabdominal volume....

Polcz M, Holland A, Wiley A, Ayuso S, Lorenz W, Scarola G, et al.
Hernia . 2025 Jan; 29(1):61. PMID: 39751991
Purpose: To present updated outcomes after previously describing a novel technique for the robotic repair of parastomal hernias. Methods: Patients who underwent parastomal hernia repair with a robotic Sugarbaker technique...

Holland A, Lorenz W, Marturano M, Hollingsworth R, Scarola G, Mead B, et al.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open . 2024 Dec; 12(12):e6381. PMID: 39726817
Background: Concurrent panniculectomy with abdominal wall reconstruction (CP-AWR) as a single-stage operation has reported increased complications, but constant quality improvement can improve results. This study describes outcomes for 21 years,...

Lorenz W, Ricker A, Holland A, Polcz M, Scarola G, Kercher K, et al.
Surg Endosc . 2024 Dec; 39(2):1283-1289. PMID: 39643756
Introduction: Wound complications (WC) after abdominal wall reconstruction (AWR) are associated with increased cost, recurrence, and mesh infection. Operative closing protocols (CP) have been studied in other surgical disciplines but...

Holland A, Lorenz W, Mead B, Scarola G, Augenstein V, Heniford B, et al.
Surg Endosc . 2024 Nov; 39(1):639-648. PMID: 39528661
Background: Open parastomal hernia repairs (OPHR) are complex with high recurrence rates and no clear optimal technique. This report summarizes long-term OPHR outcomes at a high-volume hernia center. Methods: OPHRs...

Holland A, Lorenz W, Mylarapu N, Kerr S, Mead B, Ayuso S, et al.
Surgery . 2024 Oct; 179:108894. PMID: 39477724
Background: Conflicting literature suggests that larger defects in abdominal wall reconstruction both increase the risk of recurrence and have no impact on recurrence. In our prior work, hernias with defect...

Lorenz W, Holland A, Adams A, Mead B, Scarola G, Kercher K, et al.
Surgery . 2024 Oct; 179:108895. PMID: 39472265
Background: Inguinal hernia repair is one of the most common surgical procedures in the world. Each repair technique, open, laparoscopic, and robotic, has its advantages and advocates. Prior studies have...

Surgery . 2024 Sep; 179:108802. PMID: 39304443
Introduction: Beta-lactam prophylaxis is the first-line preoperative antibiotic in open abdominal wall reconstruction. However, of the 11% patients reporting a penicillin allergy (PA), most receive second-line, non-β-lactam prophylaxis. Previously, abdominal...

Lorenz W, Holland A, Kerr S, Ayuso S, Polcz M, Scarola G, et al.
Surgery . 2024 Sep; 179:108795. PMID: 39304440
Introduction: The choice of biologic compared with synthetic mesh in abdominal wall reconstruction remains controversial, especially in Centers for Disease Control and Prevention class 1 and 2 wounds. This study...
