Abstract EN
Introduction.
We report a case of diastasis rectus abdominis (DRA), in which the improvement of the appearance was obtained by performing extra skin resection.

She was diagnosed as DRA by computed tomography.
We underwent a surgery that tacking the anterior layer of the rectus sheath and resecting excess skin.
