How Do You Spell RETROGRADE HERNIA?

Pronunciation: [ɹˌɛtɹə͡ʊɡɹˈe͡ɪd hˈɜːniə] (IPA)

Retrograde hernia is a medical term that refers to a type of hernia in which an organ or tissue pushes backwards through its normal position. The IPA phonetic transcription can help explain the spelling of this word: /ˈretrəɡreɪd hɜːrniə/. The "r" sounds in both "retrograde" and "hernia" have different positions in the mouth, with the former being a retroflex consonant and the latter being an alveolar consonant. The stress falls on the second syllable in "retrograde" and the first syllable in "hernia."

RETROGRADE HERNIA Meaning and Definition

  1. A retrograde hernia is a medical condition characterized by the abnormal displacement of an organ or tissue, typically the stomach or intestines, into a cavity or space where it does not belong. This hernia variant is specifically characterized by the backward or upward movement of the affected organ, in contrast to a common hernia where the organ protrudes outward.

    In a retrograde hernia, the affected organ or tissue may move in an opposite or reverse direction, such as moving upward into the chest cavity or backward into the retroperitoneal space behind the abdominal cavity. This displacement occurs due to a weakening of the surrounding muscles and tissues that normally hold the organs in place.

    Common causes of retrograde hernia include congenital or acquired defects in the muscles and connective tissues, as well as trauma or injury to the affected area. Other factors, such as obesity, chronic coughing, and heavy lifting, may also contribute to the development of this condition.

    Symptoms of retrograde hernia can vary depending on the specific organ involved and the location of the displacement. Common signs may include pain or discomfort in the affected area, difficulty swallowing, heartburn, regurgitation, and in severe cases, obstruction or strangulation of the displaced organ, which requires immediate medical attention.

    Treatment options for retrograde hernia may vary depending on the severity and specific characteristics of the condition. Conservative management may involve lifestyle modifications, such as weight loss, dietary changes, and avoiding activities that may exacerbate symptoms. In some cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to repair the weakened muscles or tissues and return the displaced organ to its proper position.

  2. W-hernia the central loop of which lies in the abdominal cavity.
