Overview

A hernia is “the protrusion of an organ, organic part, or other bodily structure through the wall that usually contains it.[1] Hernias may be congenital or acquired. Based on the protruded body structure and the location of the protrusion, the hernia may be classified into inguinal, femoral, umbilical, diaphragmatic, incisional, and other hernias. Different kinds of hernias, such as central nervous system (CNS), diaphragmatic, lumbar, abdominal, and pelvic hernias have to be differentiated on the basis of clinical manifestations.

Petit's hernia

Grynfeltt's hernia

  • Superior lumbar region has a triangle formed formed medially by the quadratus lumborum muscle, laterally by the internal abdominal oblique muscle, and superiorly by the 12th rib.
  • Grynfeltt's hernia is defined as herniation of retroperitoneal fat through transversalis muscle aponeurosis within the superior lumbar triangle.
  • The mainstay of treatment for lumbar hernias is surgery fixation.[26]
