    PubMed
    Summary

    This study reports six cases of abdominal wall hernias involving the stomach in middle-aged to elderly women. Gastric herniation can cause severe complications like gastric outlet obstruction and mesenteroaxial torsion.

    Area of Science:

    • Gastroenterology
    • Abdominal Surgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Abdominal wall hernias can involve intra-abdominal organs.
    • Gastric herniation is a rare but potentially serious condition.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report cases of abdominal wall hernias involving the stomach.
    • To describe the clinical presentation, radiographic findings, and complications.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective case series of six patients with gastric hernias.
    • Review of clinical data and radiographic imaging (frontal and lateral views).

    Main Results:

    • Six cases of gastric hernias (3 incisional, 2 epigastric, 1 umbilical) in women.
    • Two cases presented with gastric outlet obstruction; five had mesenteroaxial torsion.
    • Lateral views were crucial for diagnosing gastric deformity.

    Conclusions:

    • Gastric hernias can lead to significant complications, including obstruction and torsion.
    • Radiographic evaluation, particularly lateral views, is essential for diagnosis.
    • Prompt recognition and management are important for preventing severe outcomes.
