A network analysis revealed the essential and common downstream proteins related to inguinal hernia.
Although more than 1 in 4 men develop symptomatic inguinal hernia during their lifetime, the molecular mechanism behind inguinal hernia remains unknown.

An inguinal hernia imposter [PDF]
SUMMARY This is a report of one of the many imposters of an irreducible inguinal hernia, a dermoid cyst. It is a rare entity that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a groin lump when an atypical clinical presentation or groin examination occurs.

Sarcopenia ‘made simple’ and outcomes from emergency laparotomy
CT‐assessed ratio of L3 vertebral body cross‐sectional area to total psoas muscle cross‐sectional area (L3:PM) is a simple yet significant predictor of 30‐, 90‐ and 365‐day mortality in emergency laparotomy patients. This study is the first to describe the association in an Australian population.

Congenital primary obstructed megaureter presenting as inguinal hernia in an infant
A 4‐month‐old boy presented with left inguinal swelling, and the examination was notable for an inguinal hernia; ultrasonography and CT revealed that the hernia content was hugely dilated ureter of ureteral‐inguinal hernia caused by primary obstructed ...

A novel in vivo approach to assess strains of the human abdominal wall under known intraabdominal pressure [PDF]
The study concerns mechanical behaviour of a living human abdominal wall. A better mechanical understanding of a human abdominal wall and recognition of its material properties is required to find mechanically compatible surgical meshes to significantly improve the treatment of ventral hernias.

Full-field in vivo experimental study of the strains of a breathing human abdominal wall with intra-abdominal pressure variation [PDF]
The presented study aims to assess the mechanical behaviour of the anterior abdominal wall based on an in vivo experiment on humans. Full-field measurement of abdominal wall displacement during changes of intra-abdominal pressure is performed using a digital image correlation (DIC) system.

Incidence of inguinal hernia after radical prostatectomy: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
PURPOSE To investigate the incidence of inguinal hernia following radical prostatectomy, we compared the incidence of inguinal hernia after open retropubic radical prostatectomy with the laparoscopic and robot-assisted radical prostatectomies, and with ...
