Lumbar hernias are a rare form of abdomen wall hernias. As this is a rare disease, treatment options are not standardized. Most case reports, even recent ones, describe open techniques.

A congenital lumbar hernia is a rare type of hernia that can affect children born with lumbo-costo-vertebral syndrome. This case report is the first to describe a hybrid laparoscopic-assisted approach, which enabled precise intra-operative localization of a pediatric congenital lumbar hernia, and definitive surgical repair was then undertaken through an open approach. Unlike prior studies that have focused solely on either open or laparoscopic techniques, this hybrid approach offers a new strategy to improve surgical accuracy, particularly where imaging and clinical examination are inconclusive.

Lumbar hernias are rare abdominal wall hernias that occur in the posterolateral abdominal wall. Intra-peritoneal or extra-peritoneal contents typically protrude through defects in one of two anatomical triangles. The superior lumbar triangle (Grynfeltt-Lesshaft triangle) is an inverted triangle bordered by the 12th rib superiorly, the internal oblique muscle laterally, and the erector spinae muscle medially.

Lumbar hernia is a rare disease, which can be acquired spontaneously or secondarily (post-traumatically, postoperatively…) or congenitally. It results from the existence of areas of weakness between the different muscles forming the posterior abdominal wall: the deep-seated Grynfeltt triangle and the superficial Jean-Louis Petit triangle.

Background: The primary superior lumbar hernia, also called the Grynfeltt Hernia, is a rare entity; hence, a standard surgical repair method has not been established. It is important for this repair procedure not only to prevent recurrence by placing an adequate size of mesh but also to avoid nerve injury. The endoscopic retroperitoneal approach is considered a useful technique for this procedure, requiring no mobilization of the colon and providing good visibility of the surrounding nerves.
