Abstract :

Lumbar hernias are quite rarely encountered. Hence its awareness is essential to avoid mismanagement. Understanding the intricate anatomy of the region is essential for a good repair. The most common site for the occurrence of lumbar hernias is in the superior lumbar triangle (Grynfeltt) and less commonly in the inferior lumbar triangle (Petit). Surgical treatment of lumbar hernias is always recommended because of the risks of entrapment and strangulation. There is controversy regarding which is the best surgical technique to be employed. We present an alternative double layer mesh technique for tension–free repair of lumbar hernias when the use of laparoscopy is not recommended especially in case of very large defects.
