Unspecified abdominal hernia with obstruction, without gangrene - what does this mean

An unspecified abdominal hernia with obstruction occurs when a weak spot in the abdominal wall allows a portion of the intestine, fat, or other tissue to herniate and become trapped, leading to obstruction of the intestine and preventing the passage of food and other materials. without gangrene, the obstruction is usually caused by a narrowing of the hernia or a twisting of the intestine.

What happens during the disease - unspecified abdominal hernia with obstruction, without gangrene

The pathogenesis of an unspecified abdominal hernia with obstruction, without gangrene, is likely due to increased intra-abdominal pressure which causes a weakening of the abdominal wall. this can lead to a hernia, which is a protrusion of abdominal contents through the weakened area of the abdominal wall. if the hernia is large enough, it can become obstructed, leading to a blockage of the intestines. without gangrene, the hernia is not infected and tissue death has not occurred.
