==Overview==
If left untreated, [#]% of patients with [disease name] may progress to develop [manifestation 1], [manifestation 2], and [manifestation 3].


==Natural History==
OR
As the hernia progresses, contents of the abdominal cavity, such as the intestines, can descend into the hernia and run the risk of being pinched within the hernia, causing an intestinal obstruction.


==Complications==
Common complications of [disease name] include [complication 1], [complication 2], and [complication 3].
If the blood supply of the portion of the intestine caught in the hernia is compromised, the hernia is deemed "strangulated,"  and gut ischemia and [[gangrene]] can result, with potentially fatal consequences. The timing of complications is not predictable; some hernias remain static for years, others progress rapidly from the time of onset.


==Prognosis==

Prognosis is generally excellent/good/poor, and the 1/5/10-year mortality/survival rate of patients with [disease name] is approximately [#]%.
