抄録

A 48-year-old man consulted us with the chief complaints of right flank mass. On examination, there was a soft bulge on the right superior lumbar area. Since computed tomographic scanning showed subcutaneous fatty tissue, we suspected a superior lumbar hernia. The diagnosis was confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) that revealed a lumbar muscle defect and prolapsed fatty tissue around the kidney. During the operation, a small hernia hiatus, 2 cm in width, opened in the superior lumbar triangle. The herniated fatty tissue was excised, and the defect of fascia was closed by overlapping the adjacent fascial structure. No signs of recurrence were found at 3 months postoperatively. The usefulness of MRI for the diagnosis is discussed and previous literature is reviewed.
