| Abstrakt: | Ventral hernias occur when abdominal contents or the peritoneum displace through a defect in the abdominal wall. Among these, spigelian hernias are an exceptionally rare subtype, representing 0.12% to 2% of all ventral hernias. This case study focuses on an 86-year-old female presenting with a ventral hernia, notably a spigelian hernia, lacking common predisposing factors. The study emphasizes the use of laparoscopic techniques for repair, aiming to offer insights into managing this infrequent hernia type and aiding clinical decision-making. Due to its low incidence and challenging diagnosis and identification, reports such as ours detailing both the clinical course and the operative steps can assist others in their clinical decision-making.
