Although ventral hernias can usually be diagnosed by palpation, this method is imprecise in massively obese patients. In the case we have described, computerized tomography was used to confirm the presence of a ventral hernia in a morbidly obese woman. We recommend the use of this technique when a suspected ventral hernia cannot be diagnosed by routine methods.
