Computerized Tomography Scan with a Valsalva Maneuver for the Diagnosis of Denervative Abdominal Wall Hernia
نویسندگان
چکیده
The most familiar type of hernia occurs in the abdomen and the causes are either abdominal wall weakness or intraabdominal hypertension, or both. Most abdominal wall hernias result from a weakness in the abdominal wall that may be either congenital or acquired (most are incisional). Although denervative hernia or bulge produced by nerve damage and muscle paralysis is not a new entity of hernia [1-3] but still lots of work needs to be done in future, especially in the diagnosis establishment.
