Spigelian hernia. A rare case of bilateral hernia and presentation of our experience.

Spigelian hernia is a relatively rare defect of the abdominal wall. Due to its unspecific and variable clinical presentation, presents a difficult diagnostic challenge. We present a rare case of bilateral Spigelian hernia that was diagnosed and successfully treated with open surgery and hernioplasty. Also we present our experience in management of the disease. In our department the last fifteen years, 12 cases of Spigelian hernia have been treated surgically, using direct reconstruction with excellent results.
