Kombinierte endoskopische Versorgung der Spieghel-Hernie

Spigelian hernias are rare forms of abdominal hernia but can lead to severe complications. Besides conventional techniques there are only a few reports on the successful use of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques. In this paper the combination of laparoscopy and TEP (total extraperitoneal patch plasty) technique without mesh fixation is presented. In our opinion laparoscopy ?C TEP ?C laparoscopy is a logical, safe and beneficial method for treatment of Spigelian hernias.
