Multiple Choice

Preoperative diagnosis: Morbid obesity
Postoperative diagnoisis: Morbid obesity
Procedure performed: Abdominal panniculectomy
Estimated blood loss: Throughout the procedure, approximately 20 Ml
Anesthesia: General endotracheal anesthesia
Indications for procedure: This is a 49-year-old female who previously underwent gastric bypass surgery and has lost 120 pounds, leaving a large lower pannus of the abdomen. This pannus needs to be resected. The nonoperative versus operative management options were discussed with the patient. The operative risks included bleeding, infection, hematoma, chance for further surgery as well as pain, and a resulting scar. The patient accepted the risks and consented to surgery.
Procedure in detail: The patient was placed under general endotracheal anesthesia. The patient was draped in the proper manner, and the lower abdominal pannus was identified. It was preoperatively marked prior to going to the OR. The lower incision was made from the superior iliac crest with the middle being the pubic tubercle. That lower incision was then made. The pass was then elevated at the level of the anterior abdominal fascia and was elevated superiorly to the level of the inferior umbilicus. Then incisions were made on the umbilicus to the superior iliac crest, and the skin and subcutaneous pannus was passed off table as a specimen. The wound was then made hemostatic with the use of electrocautery. JP drains were placed. The abdominal skin flap was then brought to the inferior skin flap and sutured in place with 2-0 Vicryl sutures at the dermal level. The drains were then secured, and then the skin was closed with running 3-0 Monocryl suture. The wound was further dressed with Steri-strips, gauze, and abdominal binder. The patient tolerated the procedure well. All needle and instrument counts at the end of the procedure were correct, and the patient was taken to PACU in good condition.
