Definition • Reducible • Non-reducible ( incarcerated) • Strangulated • Internal • External • Interparietal
Location • Umbilicus • Lumbar triangles • Linea alba (epigastric) • Surgical incisions • Semi-lunar line • Diaphragm • Pelvis
Umbilical Hernia • Women> men(3/1) • Incidence:10% • more common in African American children • Risk factors • Obesity • Pregnancy • abdominal distension • ascites
Richter’s hernia • incarceration of a portion of the wall of the small bowel in a hernia.
Lumbar Hernia • Congenital, spontaneous or traumatic • Grynfeltt’s triangle • 12th rib, internal oblique and sacrospinalis muscle • Covered by latissimus dorsi • Petit’s triangle • Latissimus dorsi, external oblique and iliac crest • Covered by superficial fascia
Lumbar Hernia • Develops at Petit’s Triangle • Between abdominal and back muscles • Fascia in this region is thin
Littre’s hernia • hernia containing a Meckel’s diverticulum.
Epigastric hernia • In midline Between xiphoid and umbilicus • Incidence 3-5% • Men> women(3/1) • 12% multiple • Etiology: multiple factors: • congenitally weakened linea alba from a lack of decussating midline fibers • increase in intra-abdominal pressure • surrounding muscle weakness • chronic abdominal wall strain
Spigelian Hernia • occurs along the semilunar line • Rare • Ultrasound examination&ct scan • operative repair is mandatory once the hernia is confirmed on diagnosis
Pelvic Hernia • Obturator hernia • Most commonly in women • Howship-Romberg sign • Sciatic hernia • Perineal hernia
Obteratour hernia • Very rare • Seen in elderly, emaciated patients • Develops in obturator fossa • Not visible or palpable on outside • Can strangulate, cause bowel obstruction • ……
Incisional Hernia • Risk factors • Laparoscopic . open repair • Gold standard
Parastomal Hernia • Variant of incisional hernia • Paracolostomy > paraileostomy • Low rate if through rectus muscle • Laparoscopic repair
