Spigelian hernia with concurrent inguinal hernia is not uncommon. The hernia location makes conventional laparoscopic repair challenging and this is commonly repaired by the open method. We present the technical considerations and feasibility, as well as literature review, of such a hernia repaired via a minimally invasive fashion. We performed a laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal hernia repair for a 59‐year‐old woman who presented with symptomatic irreducible large Spigelian‐inguinal complex hernia, with a hernia neck of 4 cm on computed tomography scan. The hernia contents were reduced transabdominally and subsequently, the preperitoneal space was created via a transabdominal preperitoneal method to allow for hernia defect closure and subsequent mesh placement. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 2 without complication. At 6 months follow‐up, she had no complications or recurrence. With increased experience, the laparoscopic repair of complex Spigelian‐inguinal concurrent hernias is safe and feasible.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
