INGUINAL HERNIA Protrusion abdominal viscus The processus vaginalis
The inguinal canal Contens:intestine,omentum,ovary Causa: Failure obliteration of the pr.vag.

b. Medial inguinal hernia (direct) Diff.Diagnosis:Hydrocele,Undescended testis,Abscess,enlarged lymp node. Diagnosis: -Hystory -Physic :reducible bulge in the groin. -If incarcerated :irreducible bulge,severe pain, symtoms of intestinal obstruction:vomiting,distension and fixed mass in the groin.
7
GRADATION : - Reducible - Irreducible - Incarcerated - Strangulated
9
