Overview
Pathophysiology
Pathogenesis[1][2]
- A femoral hernia is the protrusion of the peritoneal sac through the femoral ring in to the femoral canal posterior and inferior to the inguinal ligament and it is medial to the femoral vessels.[3]
- The hernia sac can contain preperitoneal fat, omentum or small bowel.
- Femoral hernias typically have a narrow neck, which predisposes them to incarceration and the need for emergent surgery.
- De Garengeot hernia is a type of femoral hernia that contains the appendix.[4]
- Littre hernia is an uncommon type of femoral hernia that contain a Meckel's diverticulum.[4]
Genetics
- [Disease name] is transmitted in [mode of genetic transmission] pattern.
- Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include [gene1], [gene2], and [gene3].
- The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations.
Associated Conditions
Gross Pathology
- On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
Microscopic Pathology
- On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
