Inferior lumbar (Petit's) hernia is an uncommon condition resulting from a defect in the posterior abdominal wall. Such hernias may be difficult to diagnose on the basis of physical signs and symptoms. A case of unsuspected inferior lumbar hernia clearly demonstrated by computed tomography (CT) is presented. Computed tomography is useful in determining the size and contents of the hernia, permitting accurate diagnosis, and planning treatment.
下腰部（佩蒂特氏）疝是一种由腹后壁缺损引起的罕见病症。此类疝可能难以根据体征和症状作出诊断。本文介绍了一例经计算机断层扫描（CT）清晰显示的未被怀疑的下腰部疝病例。计算机断层扫描有助于确定疝的大小和内容物，从而实现准确诊断并规划治疗方案。
