Article Synopsis
- Umbilical hernias (UHs) are often overlooked because they don't show symptoms, and a study aimed to find how common they are using CT scans in a trauma center.
- A total of 472 CT scans were analyzed, revealing a high prevalence of 67.6% for UHs, particularly in men, while many cases (63.6%) were unreported by radiologists.
- The study concluded that CT scans are a reliable method for diagnosing UHs, showing significant underreporting and varied sizes of the hernias in patients.
