ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:

The objective of this study was to determine the CT findings of traumatic lumbar hernia in 15 patients and to discuss the mechanism and treatment of injury.

CONCLUSION:

CT can reveal traumatic lumbar hernia and show both the anatomy of disrupted muscular layers and the presence of herniated intraabdominal viscera or retroperitoneal fat.
