This disorder occurs when part of the intestine protrudes through a weak point or tear in the abdominal wall. The majority of hernias require surgery to reposition the intestine and secure weak abdominal muscles. The outcome is usually good and recurrence is very rare. It is more common in boys than in girls.
A type of hernia occurring in the lower abdomen.
A condition in which part of the intestine bulges through a weakened segment of the abdominal wall

Inguinal hernias are protrusions of abdominal cavity contents through an area of the abdominal wall commonly referred to as the groin, and known in anatomic language as the inguinal area or the myopectineal orifice. They are very common and their repair is one of the most frequently performed surgical operations. There are two types of inguinal hernia, direct and indirect.
