Lumbar hernia (LH) is a rare abdominal wall hernia that occurs within the anatomic boundaries of the 12th rib, iliac crest, external oblique muscles, erector spinae muscles, and vertebral column. Secondary LH after urological surgery is rare, and the limited evidence hinders consensus on optimal surgical treatment. Here, we present a case of laparoscopic intraperitoneal onlay mesh (IPOM) repair for a large, symptomatic secondary LH after retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy (RN) with mid-term postoperative outcomes.

Background: Spontaneous intramuscular haematomas by definition are haematomas without known etiology and exclude those caused by trauma, surgery, and muscular disease. This is a rare condition which has been increasing in incidence lately largely due to anticoagulant therapy use and currently, there is no level 1 evidence with regards to the best management of these patients, with different institutions using different approaches to treatment.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 31 patients who were treated with the diagnosis of spontaneous intramuscular haematoma in our center, in the years between 2013 and 2017.

We experienced a patient who presented with sCCF but suffered postoperative multiple vascular arteriopathy complications caused by undiagnosed vEDS. A 39-year-old woman who had no physical and medical characteristics indicating vEDS was referred to our hospital due to sudden onset of headache and pulsatile tinnitus.
