Abstract

Arcuate line hernia is considered a surgical rarity. This type of hernia is characterized by protrusion of intraperitoneal structures in a concave parietal fold in the abdominal wall. In this report, we aim to describe the diagnostic images of 2 cases of arcuate line hernia. Laparoscopic repair using a polypropylene mesh with a preattached inflatable balloon has been illustrated as well.
