Abstract

The greater omentum is an organ of excellent absorption ability and or infect defence. Transposition at vascular pedicle is a simple and very useful procedure. According to our experience with 8 patients it is most suitable to fill hollow spaces for example in the liver (echinococcus cysts); it is also very useful for covering huge contaminated irradiation defects frequently occurring with pelvic exenteration.
