Anatomic Basis for Imaging Assessment of the Postsurgical Anterolateral Abdominal Wall

The authors aim to enhance the understanding of postoperative imaging assessment of the anterolateral abdominal wall by integrating anatomical knowledge with common surgical techniques and potential complications. They explore the relationship between surgical interventions and complication patterns, emphasizing the importance of aligning imaging interpretation with surgical terminology to improve diagnostic accuracy and support multidisciplinary decision-making. The paper highlights the expected postoperative appearances, stages of healing, and complications associated with various abdominal wall procedures, primarily using CT imaging.
