    Area of Science:

    • Abdominal surgery
    • Surgical case series
    • Hernia research

    Background:

    • Spigelian hernia is a rare abdominal wall defect.
    • It has a high predisposition to incarceration and strangulation.
    • Diagnosis can be challenging.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report outcomes of surgically treated Spigelian hernias.
    • To review the pathology and clinical features.
    • To emphasize diagnostic and management considerations.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective case series of six patients.
    • Operative treatment over a ten-year period.
    • Review of pathological and clinical data.

    Main Results:

    • Six consecutive patients underwent successful operative treatment.
    • No complications or deaths were reported.
    • Zero recurrence observed during the follow-up period.

    Conclusions:

    • Surgical treatment of Spigelian hernia is effective.
    • Early recognition and intervention are crucial due to strangulation risk.
    • This series demonstrates favorable outcomes with surgical management.
