The obstruction is common here for narrow neck<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whereas in direct inguinal hernia the protrusion occurs through weak posterior wall of inguinal canal. It occurs in adults. It has wider neck so we can see the obstruction isn\u2019t\u00a0common\u00a0here<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tests for hernia :<br>The most important one is<br>Deep ring occlusion test :<br>The deep ring lies 1.25 cm above the mid inguinal point , situated at the midpoint between anterior superior iliac spine and symphysis pubis .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first bony point felt at the lateral end is the anterior superior iliac spine.<br>To find symphysis pubis follow the midline from below umbilicus. The first bony point is the symphysis pubis.<br>Measure the distance between to find the midpoint, the deep ring is 1.25 cm above this point.<br>The thumb is placed over the deep ring and the patient is asked to cough<br>No expansile impulse on cough is seen on medial to deep ring, indicating, this is an indirect inguinal\u00a0hernia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Treatment (surgical )<br>1.Hernioplasty Lichtenstein tension free repair : it is dealt with dissecting the sac and invaginations into the abdomen .<br>Polypropylene mesh is used here . The medial edge of the mesh is sutured to rectus sheath , the superior edge is sutured to conjoined tendon . The lateral edge is split around the cord at deep inguinal ring .<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Herniotomy: it involves dissection of these hernial sac and once the sac is dissected it is opened at the fundus. The content of the sac is reduced, the hernial sac is twisted and ligated at the neck. Reluctant part of the\u00a0sac\u00a0is\u00a0excised. This is all about hernia.
