In patients with giant incisional hernias, many anatomical and physiological changes turn hernia repair into quite a challenge. The possibility of developing complications as abdominal compartment syndrome after hernioplasty has prompted surgeons to seek for technical options. A tempting alternative is to induce progressive preoperative pneumoperitoneum (PPP) aiming to adapt the organism to an increase in the abdominal content. We describe the case of a patient with giant incisional hernia submitted to PPP. The patient complicated with a very symptomatic pneumomediastinum. Despite being frequently well tolerated, it is important to make a point that the induction of PPP may result in severe complications.
