hiatal hernia
A hiatal hernia is when abdominal contents, like the intestines, protrude through a small hole that is designed for the esophagus to pass through the diaphragm. The herniation referrs to the strangling of the intestines and the hiatus is the name of the opening,
The pressure is generated by the forceful contraction of the abdominal muscles and diaphragm, which increases intra-abdominal pressure and propels the stomach contents upwards and out through the mouth. This coordinated action helps to expel the vomit from the stomach.
Congenital omphalocele is a persistence of the herniation of the abdominal contents into the proximal part of the umbilical cord. Whereas, the umbilical hernia occurs when intestines herniate through the imperfectly closed umbilicus. SIMILARITY: Both herniation occurs thru the umbilicus. DIFFERENCE: In the umbilical hernias, the protruding mass is covered by subcutaneous tissue and skins, whereas in congenital omphalocele it's not.
The insuflation, deflation of the lungs produces great variations of pressure in the torax. If those variations were produced in a cavity including abdominal organs, some processes wouldn't take place (or could at least be not functional)
Hernia, hiatus: Protrusion of the stomach up into the opening normally occupied by the esophagus in the diaphragm, the great dome of muscle that separates the thoracic (chest) cavity from the abdomen.
Herniation through the cranium is called "brain herniation." This occurs when brain tissue shifts from its normal position due to increased intracranial pressure, often as a result of trauma, tumors, or swelling. The most common types of brain herniation include uncal herniation, tonsillar herniation, and central herniation. Each type can lead to severe neurological deficits and is considered a medical emergency.
None. But there are two types of inguinal herniae (or hernias): direct and indirect. Direct inguinal hernias occur when abdominal contents herniate through a weak point in the fascia of the abdominal wall and into the inguinal canal. Indirect inguinal hernias occur when abdominal contents protrude through the deep inguinal ring; this is ultimately caused by failure of embryonic closure of the processus vaginalis.
That is the medical term: lung herniation. It can occur intercostal (between the ribs), sternal (through an opening in the sternum) or diagram (into the abdominal cavity). The first and third are often due to chest injuries and the second happens during fetal development.
Did you mean "colostomy"? If yes, a colostomy is the surgical creation of an opening from the colon through the abdominal wall allowing a passage to empty the contents of the colon.
Herniation. A inguinal hernia is a protrusion of any bowel content (including omental fat) through the lower abdominal musculature.inguinal hernia

A herniation is the protrusion of muscle substance through a tear.
