Abstract
Finally, it is time to get the hell out of here. You have been working all night, and it is tempting to finish hastily. Impatience, however, is inadvisable since correct abdominal closure protects the patient from abdominal wound dehiscence (and later on from the development of a hernia) and you from great humiliation (everybody knows). Yes, you are tired, but before closing, stop and think; ask your assistants: Did we forget to do anything? See the checklist in • Chap. 44. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2010.
