Popis: | Inguinal hernia is a most common pathology in paediatric practice. Diagnosis is usually easy and rarely requires paraclinic exams (sonography). The main risk is strangulation, which can be complicated by testicular or ovarian atrophy. This justifies early surgical treatment. Operative mortality rate is almost nil. There is a risk of recurrence and of occurrence of contralateral hernia. |
