Illustration of Lumbar Hernia

Lumbar hernia "hernia in the lumbar region" or may be called Bleichner's Hernia is quite uncommon as compared to other ventral abdominal wall hernias, 1.5% of all abdominal hernias. note that 25% of all lumbar hernias have a traumatic etiology.
These occur more commonly in males and are twice as common on the left than the right side. Patients are usually between 50 to 70 years old. These hernias can occur anywhere within the lumbar region but are more common through the superior lumbar triangle (of Grynfeltt-Lesshaft)

So, Lumbar hernia has 2 anatomical types:
1-Petit's hernia: a hernia through Petit's triangle (inferior lumbar triangle). It is named after French surgeon Jean Louis Petit (1674–1750).
2-Grynfeltt's hernia: a hernia through Grynfeltt-Lesshaft triangle (superior lumbar triangle). It is named after physician Joseph Grynfeltt (1840–1913).

**Patients with lumbar hernia are usually asymptomatic but may complain of backache, flank pain or a dragging sensation. These hernias have a natural history of a gradual increase in size over time.

  2. The treatment for a hernia is surgery: an operation to repair (fix) the hernia. But, every hernia does not require an operation. For some hernias, only observation – wait and watch – is sufficient.

    Not all hernias need to be operated. The decision about whether or not to operate requires careful consideration of several factors: What is the type of hernia? What is the size? Is it reducible or irreducible? How is your general health? In some cases, the decision is fairly straightforward. In others, a detailed and thoughtful discussion is necessary.

    Hernia surgery can be done either by laparoscopy (keyhole surgery) or by open surgery (a long cut). Laparoscopy is preferable to open surgery in most cases. But, in some cases open surgery may be better. A synthetic patch called a mesh is used to reinforce the muscles of your abdominal (tummy wall) in most hernia repair operations. You could think of a mesh as a specially designed fishing net. The mesh remains in your body permanently. It works like scaffolding so that scar tissue can grow into the mesh and strengthen the area. There are different types of meshes and different ways of fixing the meshes to the muscles of the abdominal wall. There are pros and cons for various techniques, and a thoughtful choice needs to be made. Dr Manas Tripathy does both laparoscopic and open hernia surgery, and he will explain the choice that may be best for you.
