Abstract
Traumatic abdominal wall hernia is a rare condition secondary to blunt abdominal trauma in adults. We herein present a 25- year-old man with traumatic herniation through the right lateral abdominal wall following high velocity blunt abdominal trauma (he had been hit by a forklift). Although most attention during the primary diagnostic process is directed toward the detection of internal injuries at the abdomen, blunt trauma to the abdomen may result in defects at the abdominal wall, as well. The patient underwent emergency exploratory laparotomy and, a segment of the omentum and transverse colon were found to be herniated. A primary repair was performed.
Özet
Travmatik abdominal duvar hernisi künt karın travmalarının erişkinlerde nadir rastlanan bir sonucudur. Yüksek enerjili künt abdominal travma (forklift kepçesinin direkt olarak karnına çarpmasıyla) sonucu oluşan sağ lateral abdominal duvar hernisi bulunan 25 yaşında erkek olgu sunulmuştur. Künt travmalarda her ne kadar abdominal organlardaki yaralanmaların tanınmasına öncelik verilse de, bu hastalarda abdominal duvar defekti de oluşabilir. Hastaya acil eksploratif laparotomi yapılarak herniye olmuş omentum ve transvers kolon gözlenmiş ve defekte primer tamir uygulanmıştır.
