A Case of Congenital Spigelian Hernia Requiring Reoperation due to Recurrence.

A Spigelian hernia is a rare abdominal wall herniation that occurs within the Spigelian fascia, located between the semilunar line and the outer border of the rectus abdominis muscle. A 2-year-old boy was brought to our medical facility because of a longstanding bulge in his right lower abdominal quadrant. Computed tomography revealed the presence of a spinal hernia, right undescended testicle, and right kidney defect. Given the potential association of Spigelian hernias with an undescended testis, a comprehensive examination of the scrotal region at the time of diagnosis is warranted. In the absence of intestinal obstruction or hernia abruption, surgical intervention is recommended on a standby basis. Furthermore, concurrent treatment of any undescended testicle is advised to alleviate patient burden.
