Abstract:Background: Lumbar incisional hernia following iliac bone grafting poses an anatomical challenge to the attending surgeon. Alteration of the local anatomy necessitates meticulous preoperative evaluation and proper planning of the repair. Introduction: The incidence of such incisional hernias is between 5-7%. The chances of complications are high. Case Report: A case of lumbar incisional hernia following iliac bone graft harvesting is presented. Discussion: The planning and technical considerations of surgical repair are discussed. Conclusion: Pre-operative CT scan evaluation of the hernia followed by open mesh repair is advisable as it ensures safety and offers good results.
