Spigelian hernia is a rare type of hernia that occurs in the Spigelian fascia of the abdominal wall. It was first described in the 17th century by Adriaan van den Spiegel. Spigelian hernias account for about 1% of all ventral hernias. They most commonly occur in adults ages 40-70 and present with pain. Diagnosis can be challenging as physical exam may not reveal a bulge. Imaging like ultrasound or CT can help identify the hernia defect. Treatment options include open herniorrhaphy or laparoscopic repair with mesh. Laparoscopy is preferred to minimize morbidity and allow for treatment of other hernias if present. Recurrence after
Ventral hernia is protrusion of peritoneal sac through anterior abdominal wall defects except Groin hernias. In this presentation I have discussed Epigastric, Umbilical, Para umbilical, Incisional, Spigelian and Lumbar hernias.

Dear viewers,
• Greetings from “Surgical Educator”
• Because of the popular demand by viewers of the YouTube channel “Surgical Educator”, I have decided to create and upload videos on common surgeries.
• I have already uploaded videos on open and Laparoscopic Appendicectomy, Thyroidectomy, Modified Radical Mastectomy and open and
Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy
• In this video today, I have discussed Open Inguinal Hernia Repair.
• However, these videos are not real surgeries but the theoretical aspect of operative surgery like going through an atlas of operative surgery.
• Along with these videos, I recommend you to watch real operative surgery videos as well and I will give a link for each surgery in the end of the video as end-cards, which I think will be very useful.
• This will give a very good opportunity for the surgical trainees to mentally rehearse various surgical steps in a sequential manner prior to actual surgery. You can watch the video in the following links:

Femoral hernia is the third common hernia after inguinal and incisional hernias. The swelling in femoral hernia is below and lateral to pubic tubercle. It is more common in females. Strangulation is very common in this hernia.
This presentation gives general overview about different aspects of PILONIDAL DISEASE including pathophysiology, etiology, clinical Presentation, different treatment options available etc
Spigelian hernias form a minority of all abdominal wall hernias. They occur between the layers of the abdominal wall, i.e. between the transversus abdominis and the internal oblique muscles through a small slit like or oval defect and may become incarcerated. A variety of intra abdominal organs have been reported in the hernia sac. Obstruction and strangulation are potential complications but they are rare. The clinical diagnosis of a Spigelian hernia is difficult when it is small. We present here a large Spigelian hernia which persisted for very many years without any complications

Role of ultrasound in right iliac fossa painMadhu Sudana
This presentation briefly outlines the role of ultrasound in differential diagnosis of right iliac fossa pain.
Reference :- White, E. and Rudralingam, V. ‘Seeing past the appendix: the role of ultrasound in right iliac fossa pain’.
The acute scrotum is the painful, swollen scrotum or its contents of sudden onset. The “acute scrotum” may be viewed as the urologist’s equivalent to the general surgeon’s “acute abdomen.” Scrotal emergencies are rare but potentially life and fertility threatening. The most common causes of acute scrotal pain in adults are testicular torsion and epididymitis.
Patients with scrotal pain less than the age of 16 have torsion until proven otherwise. Scrotal pain with nausea & vomiting is specific for torsion.
A small but real, negative exploration rate is acceptable to minimize the risk of missing a critical surgical diagnosis. TIME IS TESTICLE

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
2. Enonym
Adriaan van den Spiegel, born in Brussels, was an anatomist at the University
of Padua during the 17th century.
In 1619 he became a professor of surgery.
Spiegel was the first to described this rare hernia in 1627.
The history of the Spigelian hernia became acknowledged in 1645, twenty
years after Spiegel's death.
In 1764, almost a century later, the Flemish anatomist, Josef Klinkosch was
acknowledged for recognizing and describing a hernia located in the
Spigelian fascia, and coined the term Spigelian hernia.
3. They are rare and account for ~1%
(range 0.1-2%) of ventral hernias.
4. Epidemiology
Review of the literature (876 patients)
Female-to-male ratio was 1.4:1
Right-to-left-side ratio was 1.18:1.
Twenty-nine instances of bilateral hernias were reported.
In 6 patients, there was more than 1 hernia on the same side.
29 of the hernias were located above the umbilicus.
Most spigelian hernias have been diagnosed in patients between 40 and 70 years of
age.
Twenty eight children, 17 boys and 11 girls, younger than 16 years of age were
operated on for spigelian hernia.
Incarceration at the time of operation was seen in t01 of 419 reported hernias
(24.1%).
5. ANATOMY
Linea semilunaris (Spigelii): This is the line forming and
marking the transition from muscle to aponeurosis in the
transversus abdominis muscle
The part of the aponeurosis that lies lateral to the rectus
abdominis muscle is usually called the spigelian fascia.
6. Spigelian hernia belt
A hernia may occur throughout the length of the spigelian
aponeurosis.
The term spigelian hernia usually refers to hernias
located above the inferior epigastric vessels.
About 9 of 10 of these hernias occur within a transverse
belt lying 0-6 cm cranial to the interspinal plane
7. Above the umbilicus
29876
Above the umbilicus the fibers of the transversus abdominis and internal
oblique muscles cross one another at angles, making herniation more
unlikely than if the fibers were to run parallel, as they do below Nthe
umbilicus.
8. low spigelian hernias
caudal and medial to the
inferior epigastric artery
within the Hesselbach
triangle
9. POSSIBLE LOCATION OF THE HERNIA SAC
A hernial sac can easily expand in this space and, therefore, adopts
a typical T- or mushroom-shaped appearance.
The space is largest laterally ,so large spigelian hernias can be
palpated laterally to the spigelian aponeurosis.
That the hernia is palpated more laterally than the location of the
hernia orifice often makes it more difficult to diagnose.
The external aponeurosis is so thick that it is rarely penetrated by
the hernia.
This explains why only 15 of 876 patients have been reported to
have a subcutaneously located hernial sac.
10. POSSIBLE LOCATION OF THE HERNIA SAC
Most spigelian hernias are interstitial, that is, the sac penetrates through the transversus
aponeurosis and internal oblique muscle but dissects under the external oblique.
The hernia sac consists of peritoneum and occasionally bands from the transversalis fascia and is
often preceded by preperitoneal fat.
11. The defect is usually small, with rigid edges
All sizes have been reported, but most necks vary from 0.5 to 2.0 cm,
although some have been described as large as 4.0 to 6.0 cm
12. MORBIDITY
They usually contain small intestine or omentum but may
include any viscus or organ.
Richter’s hernia and sliding hernias have been associated
with spigelian hernia
Up to one third of reported cases have been incarcerated
at the time of operation.
13. Pathology
congenital or acquired
Defects in the aponeurosis of transverse abdominal muscle
(mainly under the arcuate line and more often in obese
individuals) have been considered as the principal
etiologic factor.
14. Pathology
congenital or acquired
Pediatric cases, especially neonates and infants, are mostly congenital
A Spigelian hernia is associated with ipsilateral cryptorchidism among
75% male infants .
Two hypotheses have been proposed to explain the association, but the
exact mechanism is still in debate
Spigelian-cryptorchidism syndrome (failure in the development of a
gubernaculum)
Raveenthiran syndrome (ectopic testis from a potential hernia sac)
15. Raveenthiran syndrome
Dr. Raveenthiran of SRM Hospital, Kattankulathur
described a new syndrome in which Spigelian hernia
and cryptorchidism (undescended testis) occur together.
Some common complications of this distinct
syndrome cryptorchidism are testicular torsion, and its
link to testicular cancer
16. Spigelian-cryptorchidism syndrome
a The Spigelian hernia sac after dissection,
b the Spigelian hernia sac containing a normal testis without gubernaculum and a loop
of small intestine with compromised circulation
17. Location
The hernial orifice of a Spigelian hernia is located in the Spigelian fascia, that
is, between the lateral border of the rectus abdominis muscle and
the semilunar line, through the transversus abdominis aponeurosis, close to
the level of the arcuate line.
The majority of Spigelian hernias are found in a transverse band lying 0-6 cm
cranial to a line running between both anterior superior iliac spines referred
to as the Spigelian hernia belt.
Most Spigelian hernias occur in the lower abdomen where the posterior sheath
is deficient
18. DIAGNOSIS
The diagnosis of a Spigelian hernia at times presents greater challenge than
its treatment.
The clinical presentation varies, depending on the contents of the hernial
sac and the degree and type of herniation.
The pain, which is the most common symptom, varies, and there is no pain
typical to a Spigelian hernia.
Findings to facilitate diagnosis are a palpable hernia and a palpable hernial
orifice.
It should be stressed, though, that since the hernia lies deep to a muscle, it
commonly does not cause a noticeable bulge in the abdominal wall.
19. Radiographic features
Ultrasound
Ultrasound can be recommended for verification of the diagnosis in both palpable
and nonpalpable Spigelian hernia.
CT
The hernial orifice and sac can be well demonstrated by computed tomography,
which gives more detailed information on the contents of the sac than does
ultrasound scanning.

37. How to best handle with recurrence?
Recurrence rate 5-14%
Larson (70 patients): repaired using simple suture (recurrence rate 4.3%)
Bames (26 patients): zero recurrences after laparoscopic surgery (F/U 4 year)
Some authors mesh for defect >2 cm or weak local tissue
Open and laparoscopic both safe similar results
Patient settings (SH is unique )
Intra abdominal laparoscopic approach is most
advisable for recurrent cases
Etiology
Spigelian hernia occurs with the failure of the development of the gubernaculum, which in turn halts the development of the inguinal canal and further descent of the testis from its intra-abdominal position to the scrotum. The arrested testis induces a sort of "rescue canal" through a weak area in the abdominal wall in the absence of inguinal canal resulting Spigelian hernia
