    Author: Kumar A, Hazrah P, Bal S, Seth A, Parshad R.
    Journal: Hernia; 2004 Aug; 8(3):277-80. PubMed ID: 14735329.
    Abstract:
    Traumatic abdominal wall hernia, a rare cause of hernia, has a confusing clinical picture and requires a high index of suspicion for prompt diagnosis and management. Such hernias, if missed, can result in high morbidity and may prove fatal. Distinction from a pre-existing hernia is important as well. We report our experience in two such cases, which had presented in a span of 9 months, and submit a brief analysis of 50 reviewed cases.
