ABSTRACT
Preoperative ultrasound-guided lateral abdominal wall botulinum toxin injection is a promising method for improving patient outcomes and reducing recurrence rates after ventral hernia repair. A review of the literature demonstrates variability in the procedural technique, without current standardization of protocols. As radiologists may be increasingly asked to perform ultrasound-guided botulinum toxin injections of the lateral abdominal wall, familiarity with the procedure and current literature is necessary.
