  • Title: Small bowel obstruction secondary to incarcerated Richter's hernia from laparoscopic hernia repair.
    Author: Wegener ME, Chung D, Crans C, Chung D.
    Journal: J Laparoendosc Surg; 1993 Apr; 3(2):173-6. PubMed ID: 8518473.
    Abstract:
    Presented herein is a case of a patient who, during a laparoscopic herniorrhaphy, developed profound bradycardia upon introduction of the pneumoperitoneum. Following discharge, the patient presented 24 h later with herniation through the trocar port incision. With laparoscopic surgery being used more frequently, there will be an increase in the incidence of these types of complications; however, with better awareness, they may be avoided.
