When abdominal conditions such as leiomyomas (uterine fibroids), incisional hernias, and pendulous abdomen that require surgical interventions occur simultaneously in an individual, they can be managed concurrently or in stages. Combining these procedures offers theoretical advantages such as avoiding a second surgery, reducing downtime from work, minimizing anaesthetic risks, and lowering costs. Safety concerns have been raised but evidence suggests that simultaneous surgery is safe with careful planning. We present a case of a 42-year-old woman who underwent a subtotal hysterectomy, right salpingo-oophorectomy, incisional hernioplasty, and abdominoplasty concurrently with successful outcomes.
