[Lumbar hernia through the Jean Louis Petit triangle: anatomic and clinical aspects]
Abstract:
Lumbar hernia through Jean Louis Petit Triangles is rare. Usually asymptomatic, it is sometime revealed by lumbar mass or a complication. Surgical treatment consists on parietal repair. This could be done by direct suture, muscular plasty or prothetic material. We hereby, report three cases of lumbar hernia. We get the opportunity to make an update in the anatomical, clinical and therapeutical point to view.

Herniated Intervertebral Disc l: Introduction
Intervertebral disc herniation refers to the displacement of the nucleus pulposus (the gel-like inner core of the disc) through a tear or weakened area in the annulus fibrosus (the outer fibrous ring). The displaced disc material extends beyond the normal boundaries of the disc space and may compress or irritate nearby spinal nerve roots or, less commonly, the spinal cord.Etiology and Risk FactorsHerniation commonly results from degeneration, in which aging reduces disc hydration and...
Hiatal Hernia
A hiatal hernia is the abnormal protrusion of the stomach or other abdominal organs through the esophageal hiatus of the diaphragm into the thoracic cavity.Normally, the gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) lies below the diaphragm and is supported by the phrenoesophageal membrane, the diaphragmatic crura, and connective tissues. Weakening of these structures—due to aging, congenital defects like a short esophagus, or increased intra-abdominal pressure from coughing, obesity, pregnancy, or heavy...
