ABSTRACT
Inguinal and other abdominal wall hernias are some of the most commonly encountered problems in the pediatric population that require surgical intervention. Surgical repair is straightforward in most cases and can be performed on an outpatient basis. Complications are unusual, but potentially devastating. This article focuses specifically on incidence and risk factors of these complications, reviews the currently accepted treatment options, and points out strategies to avoid them.
