Repair of Incarcerated or Strangulated, Spigelian or Epigast

An incarcerate or strangulated, epigastric or spigelian hernia is when a piece of fat bulges through a weakened part of abdominal wall muscle wall supposed to hold it in place and cuts off blood supply to vital organs in the area. The opening is near the center of the abdomen (belly), between the bottom of the breastbone (sternum) and the belly button. The surgeon will either remove this portion of fat, or push the sac back into your abdominal cavity, and place a mesh over the site of the hernia to prevent reappearance. Seek immediate care if a hernia bulge turns red, purple or dark or if you notice any other signs or symptoms of a strangulated hernia.
