Ventral Abdominal Hernia with Loss of Domain on Physical Exam - Dr. Luis Felipe Cabrera Vargas @PipeCabreraV Large hernias can be very challenging surgically.

Loss of domain expresses the relationship between hernia and abdominal volume, and is used to predict operative difficulty and success.β #Ventral #Hernia #Abdominal #LossOfDomain #PhysicalExam #clinical #video
