ABSTRACT
Spigelian hernia is rare and its diagnosis is often challenging. The clinical presentation varies, depending on the contents of the hernial sac and types of herniation. It is even rarer in children and is often associated with cryptorchidism. Here, we present a case of spigelian hernia in a 2 year old male child who presented to us with pain and swelling in right lateral abdomen and diagnosed on CT scan and treated surgically. In our opinion, CT scan is an excellent tool for diagnosis of the condition and also aids in surgical planning.
Key-words: Spigelian hernia, Ventral hernia, Cryptorchidism.
