Spontaneous rupture of an incisional hernia.
نویسنده
چکیده
An incisional hernia is represented by the protrusion of hollow viscera from their physiological position through an area of weakness in a surgical scar. Spontaneous rupture of abdominal herniae is very rare and usually occurs in incisional herniae [1] with only very few cases reported in literature. An incisional hernia is a frequently observed complication after abdominal surgery, with an incidence after midline laparotomy of 2 20% [2]. We report a case of spontaneous rupture in a 45 year old female who had developed incisional hernia.
