Tips on using my ppt. You can freely download, edit, modify and put your name etc. Don’t be concerned about number of slides. Half the slides are blanks except for the title. First show the blank slides (eg. Aetiology ) > Ask students what they already know about ethology of today's topic. > Then show next slide which enumerates aetiologies. At the end rerun the show – show blank> ask questions > show next slide. This will be an ACTIVE LEARNING SESSION x three revisions. Good for self study also. Good for self study also. Display blank slide> Think what you already know about this > Read next slide. See notes for bibliography.

Hernia: Definition
Hernia: Definition An abnormal protrusion of a viscus or its part through a normal or abnormal opening in the walls of its containing cavity.
Relevant Anatomy
Pathophysiology Anatomy Hesselbach's triangle- Lateral border of the rectus abdominis Inguinal ligament Inferior epigastric vessels.
Anatomy The spermatic cord- Vas deferens Processus vaginalis. C remasteric muscle fibers , Testicular artery and accompanying veins Genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve Cremasteric vessels, Lymphatics,Â
Anatomy Inguinal Ligament The lacunar ligament
Anatomy Inguinal Ligament: ( Poupart’s ligament) is the inferior edge of the external oblique aponeurosis and extends from the anterior superior iliac spine to the pubic tubercle, turning posteriorly to form a shelving edge. The lacunar ligament is the fan-shaped medial expansion of the inguinal ligament, which inserts into the pubis and forms the medial border of the femoral space
Anatomy The external (superficial) inguinal ring: The Internal (Deep ) ring
Anatomy The external (superficial) inguinal ring: is an ovoid opening of the external oblique aponeurosis that is positioned superiorly and slightly laterally to the pubic tubercle. The Internal (Deep ) ring : Opening in Fascia transversalis at mid inguinal point. 1.25 cm above the inguinal ligament, midway between the symphysis pubis and the anterior superior iliac spine
Anatomy Important sensory nerves- Iliohypogastric n. Ilioinguinal n. Genital branch of the genitofemoral nerve Â
Anatomy The inferior epigastric artery and vein .
Anatomy  The inferior epigastric artery and vein . Defines the type of inguinal hernia. Indirect inguinal hernias occur lateral to the inferior epigastric vessels, whereas direct hernias occur medial to these vessels.
Anatomy Cremaster muscle-
Anatomy Cremaster muscle- arise from the internal oblique, encompass the spermatic cord, and attach to the tunica vaginalis of the testis.
Anatomy Parts of Hernia- Sac Coverings of the sac Contents of the sac. Neck of sac is at internal ring where sac communicates with peritoneal cavity.
Anatomy Types of Hernia- Bubonocele . The hernia is limited to the inguinal canal. Funicular. The processus vaginalis is closed just above the epididymis . Complete (synonym: scrotal).
Relevant Physiology
Defense of inguinal canal Shutter mechanism Obliquity of inguinal canal Ball valve mechanism of cremaster Contraction of cremaster helps the spermatic cord to plug superficial inguinal ring. The pinchcock action of the internal ring musculature Flap valve mechanism The superficial inguinal ring is guarded from behind by the conjoint tendon and by the reflected part of the inguinal canal.  The anterior wall opposite the deep ring is reinforced laterally by the internal oblique muscles. Slit valve mechanism Contraction of the external oblique results in approximation of the two crura of the superficial inguinal ringÂ
Inguinal hernia: Etiology Risk factors Elevated intra-abdominal pressure is associated with chronic cough, ascites, increased peritoneal fluid from biliary atresia, peritoneal dialysis or ventriculoperitoneal shunts, intraperitoneal masses or organomegaly, and obstipation. Premature infants Exstrophy of bladder, neonatal intraventricular hemorrhage, myelomeningocele, and undescended testes.Â
Inguinal hernia: Etiology Molecular Risk factors The rectus sheath adjacent to groin hernias is thinner than normal. The rate of fibroblast proliferation is less than normal, and the rate of collagenolysis appears increased. Sailors who developed scurvy had an increased incidence of hernia Aberrant collagen states ( eg , Ehlers-Danlos, fetal hydantoin, Freeman-Sheldon, Hunter-Hurler, Kniest , Marfan , and Morquio syndromes), have increased rates of hernia formation, as do osteogenesis imperfecta, pseudo-Hurler polydystrophy , and Scheie syndrome.
Inguinal hernia: Etiology Molecular Risk factors Acquired elastase deficiency Heavy smokers The contribution of biochemical or metabolic factors to the creation of inguinal hernias is unclear.
Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology An indirect inguinal hernia follows the tract through the inguinal canal. It results from a persistent processus vaginalis. The processus fails to close adequately at birth in 40-50% of boys.  A familial tendency exists, with 11.5% of patients having a family history. Direct hernia is caused by weakness of posterior wall – abdominal wall and thinning of fascia.
Pathophysiology Increased intra-abdominal pressure: Marked obesity Heavy lifting Coughing Straining with defecation or urination Ascites Peritoneal dialysis Ventriculoperitoneal shunt Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) Family history of hernias
Classification
Classification Indirect Inguinal hernia. Direct Inguinal hernia. Congenital Inguinal hernia. A sliding hernia :a portion of the sac is composed of visceral peritoneum covering part of a retroperitoneal organ, usually the colon or bladder
Clinical Features
Clinical Features Demography Symptoms Signs Prognosis Complications
Demography
Demography Incidence & Prevalence Geographical distribution. Race Age Sex Socioeconomic status Temporal behaviour
Demography Incidence 5-10 % Geographical distribution : none Age- increases with age. Sex -25 times more common in males. Even in females most common groin hernia is inguinal hernia. Side-More common on right side.
Symptoms
Symptoms Swelling in inguinoscrotal region. Painless unless complicated.
Signs
Signs Male Complaint painless inguinoscrotal swelling on and off. Skin over swelling –normal. Visible peristalsis. O/E local temperature normal Non tender Testis palpable separately Getting above swelling not possible Reducible. Impulse on coughing present Resonant on percussion Opaque Three finger test Invagination test Ring Occlussion test.
Prognosis
Prognosis Morbidity Mortality rate 5 year survival in Malignancy
