TRAUMATIC ABDOMINAL WALL HERNIA: A CASE REPORT

Abstract

Traumatic abdominal wall hernia occurs after blunt abdominal trauma. It is related to the sudden increase of intra abdominal pressure and shearing of the abdominal wall except the skin. Contrast enhanced Computed Tomography (CECT) is the principal imaging modality to diagnose the hernia, its content and related intra abdominal injuries.
