Note

The most common strangulated organ in a female infant with indirect inguinal hernia is the ovary.

#Hernia

Forwarded from Quick Notes
Strangulation of paraumbilical hernia is frequent which justify operation in nearly all cases, from the image above the fibrous rigid linea alba (black arrow) creates a narrow neck with a rigid edge that makes strangulation likely, in addition sometimes in large hernias loculations due to omental adhesions cause strangulation in a knuckle of intestine in an otherwise soft and non tender hernial sac.

This is a polypropylene mesh used for hernioplasty, this provides structural support to a weak defect, it gained widespread popularity especially with inguinal hernias (Lichtenstein tension-free hernioplasty), it can be used for recurrent paraumbilical hernias or those with very large defect.

Mayo's operation, indicated for small defects on paraumbilical hernias, the operation simply proceed with transverse elliptical incision near the umbilicus, the subcutaneous fat is dissected to reveal the anterior rectus sheath and the neck of the hernia which is incised, the contents are delt with appropriately and then the sac is dissected out and the peritoneum sutured, then the defect is strengthened with overlapping of the aponeuroses on each side of the umbilicus and fixed with sutures the overlap should be 5 to 7.5 cm.

-Fever and tachycardia are commonly absent in acute cholecystitis; maintain
a high index of clinical suspicion!


-Fever is also absent in case of cystitis.

In compartment syndrome.

-Pain out of proportion to injury (typically first and most significant symptom).

-Pain with passive stretch (most sensitive sign).

-5Ps:late signs-do not wait for these to develop to make the diagnosis!!

-Re-recurrent hernia.
-Incisional hernia.
-Old age.
-Hernia with weak abdominal muscle tone.
-Sliding hernia.

Complications:

-
Infection.
-Mesh extrusion.

About venous drainage , do not say cystic vein .
Say Small veins pass from the galbladder through its bed directly into tributaries of the right portal vein within the liver.
