  • Title: Immediate laparoscopic repair of a traumatic abdominal wall hernia in a 2-year-old child.
    Author: Pimpalwar A, Joseph J.
    Journal: J Laparoendosc Adv Surg Tech A; 2011 Nov; 21(9):881-3. PubMed ID: 21978274.
    Abstract:
    Traumatic abdominal wall hernia in children with intact skin is rare. This type of hernia is caused by blunt trauma abdomen that does not penetrate the skin. These hernias have been repaired in adults by open repair. We report the first laparoscopic repair of this condition in a 2-year-old child with blunt abdominal trauma in emergent settings.
