Laparoscopic ventral hernia repair with intraperitoneal onlay mesh reinforcement is often performed in clinical practice. We herein describe a patient who developed a Spigelian hernia at the edge of the mesh due to rupture of the muscular layer in the abdominal wall. A 69-year-old woman developed a left-sided abdominal bulge 15 months after laparoscopic ventral hernia repair. CT showed a 33-mm defect in the abdominal wall at the lateral edge of the left abdominal rectus muscle with an intestinal prolapse through the defect. She was diagnosed with a Spigelian hernia and underwent operation. The hernia orifice was located at the aponeurosis of the transverse abdominal muscle where the thread had been used to fix the mesh through all layers of the abdominal wall. This report details a case of a Spigelian hernia after laparoscopic ventral hernia repair.

Occult hernias, which are not detectable through clinical examination but can be identified during surgery, are typically asymptomatic. Bilateral inguinal hernias occur frequently, and in some cases, unilateral or bilateral inguinal hernias are observed in conjunction with paraumbilical hernias. However, it is rare to repair more than three hernias, including rare types, in a single procedure.
