Four cases of patients suffering from abdominal scar injuries (laparotomic eventration and colonic prolapse through the site of previous colostomy) associated with antineoplastic chemotherapy-induced emesis are presented. The hypothesis of emetic strain as the main cause of eventration of prolapse is discussed. The authors suggest the need of a routine prophylactic antiemetic treatment in patients submitted to abdominal surgery and subsequent antineoplastic chemotherapy in order to avoid these accidents.
