Abstract
Spigelian hernia is a protrusion of a sack of peritonum, an organ or a preperitoneal fat through a defect in the Spigelian fascia, which was named after Adrian Van der Spighel who first described the lineasemilunaris. We report a case of Spigelian hernia in a 21 years old female. Generally diagnosis of Spigelian hernia can be difficult because of it's uncharacteristic symptoms and a failure to consider a possibility of this hernia. Findings such as palpable hernia sack and orifice facilitate to make the correct diagnosis. Ultrasonic and CT scannings can offer available informations for the diagnosis of this hernia. Surgical treatment is the first-choice reginen and the recurrence is hardly found.
