Abdominal wall hernias are more prevalent in the morbidly obese. Incarceration of external hernias is a relatively common process in adults and is associated to a high rate of complications and mortality. We present the case of a morbidly super-super-obese patient (body mass index, 80 kg/m(2)) who underwent emergency surgery for an incarcerated umbilical hernia; the patient died despite segmental intestinal resection, hernia repair using mesh, and intensive care.
腹壁疝在病态肥胖者中更为常见。成人腹股沟外疝嵌顿是一个相对常见的过程，且与高并发症发生率和死亡率相关。我们报告一例病态超级肥胖患者（体重指数，80kg/m²），该患者因脐疝嵌顿接受了急诊手术；尽管进行了节段性肠切除、使用补片修补疝以及重症监护，患者仍死亡。
