Petit’s Lumbar Hernia- a Double Layer Technique for Tension Free Mesh Repair

Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4

Abstract

Since De Garengoet described first incarcerated hernia in 1731 Lumbar Hernia is relatively rare case, fewer than 300 cases reported in the literature. It occurs through the postero-superior lumbar triangle (Grynfeltt’s) and less commonly in the inferior lumbar triangle (Petit’s) [1]. Surgical treatment is recommended because of the risk of entrapment and strangulation [4].the incidence rate is less than 1.5% among all hernia cases[2] . patient with lumbar hernia can present with flank bulge accompanying with local discomfort and tenderness[3]. There are several treatments as per the facial defect[4]. For small defect direct approximation of muscle is sufficient. For larger defect facial flap or mesh fixation is essential {4, 5, and 6}.Nowadays laparoscopic Transabdominal extra peritonial repair of lumbar hernia is ideal[7] .
