Abstract
Incarcerated linea alba hernia is a rare form of ventral hernia. Most of these contain pre-peritoneal fat or the omentum. Herniation of containing ligamentum teres hepatis is seldom seen. A 52-year-old man presented with an abdominal wall mass and dull pain for 2 weeks. Computed tomography and ultrasound examination of the abdomen revealed an epigastrium linea alba hernia containing the liver round ligament. A hernial sac of size 3 cm × 4 cm was explored by laparoscopic surgery and successfully managed with hernia repair.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
