title: [Hernias in the computed tomogram of the abdomen].
abstract: Asymptomatic hernias may be accidental findings in abdominal computed tomography. The characteristic features in our own 47 own cases, and the results of other authors, are discussed. Suspected diaphragmatic hernias, with the exception of hernias, are a special indication for CT. The method may also be useful for the detection of rare abdominal and pelvic wall herniations.
