Objective corroboration of this finding was shown in the group with the irritable bowel syndrome by a highly s...

Variations in the origin of arteries in the abdomen are very common but with the invention of new operative techniques within the abdominal cavity, the anatomy of abdominal vessels has assumed much more clinical importance. During routine dissection of the abdominal cavity, we came across multiple arterial anomalies involving testicular and suprarenal arteries. On the right side, there was doub...

Abstract: Abdominal aortic aneurysm is a swelling (aneurysm) of the aorta. aneurysms often grow slowly without noticeable symptoms, so screening by clinical examination combined with imaging methods to detect disease early helps reduce morbidity and mortality. Computed tomography (CT) becoming increasingly common has become good method for detecting abdominal aneurysms. This study aims describe...

The mid-abdominal musculature and its innervation are compared for several lower neopteran “orders”; data on Embioptera and Mantophasmatodea are presented for the fi rst time. For the sclerotisations, the musculature, and the nervous system of the mid-abdomen general descriptions are given, and general aspects of homologisation in these elements are explained; for the lateral muscles the distin...

A 61-year-old Japanese male was seen at an outside hospital with abdominal pain and distention. An intraabdominal mass was found on abdominal computed tomography (CT), and he was referred for further evaluation. He was afebrile, with mild tenderness in the upper abdomen and massive distention. Routine blood work showed severe inflammation and anemia. Repeat CT showed a large solitary heterogene...

A Spigelian hernia is a very rare type of anterior abdominal wall hernia. The etiology revolves around the dehiscence transverse abdominis and internal oblique aponeurosis. majority hernias develop in lower abdomen where posterior sheath absent. This condition also known as spontaneous lateral ventral or semilunar line. It mostly asymptomatic generally proven by radiological diagnosis. In worst...

Epigastric hernia, a form of abdominal ventral accounts for 0.5 – 10.0% all wall hernias. These may be congenital due to incomplete midline fusion developing lateral domains or acquired. It usually occurs in individuals the age groups 20 50 years and infants. is rarely large enough admit more than small amount extra-peritoneal fat. We discuss an epigastric hernia known only little 4-hours, pres...
