Overview
Obturator hernia is a rare hernia accounting for less than 1% of all intra abdominal hernias. Morbidity and mortality associated with obturator hernia can be reduced with early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention.
Natural History, Complications, and Prognosis
Natural History
- Obturator hernia is a rare hernia accounting for less than 1% of all intra abdominal hernias.[1]
- Clinical diagnosis is considered challenging as symptoms are nonspecific.
- Obturator hernia should be strongly suspected in an elderly woman with small bowel obstruction and Obturator neuralgia.[2]
- Obturator hernia should be included in the elderly women with chronic pelvic pain.
- Morbidity and mortality associated with Obturator hernia can be reduced with early diagnosis and prompt surgical intervention.[3]
Complications
- Common complications of obturator hernia include[4]
Prognosis
- Laproscopic approach has lower post-operative complication rates when compared to open laparotomy in stable patients.[5]
- Obturator hernias carry significant morbidity and mortality which can be reduced with early diagnosis and surgical intervention.[6]
