  However, Littre's hernia should be suspected in the presence of rectal bleeding, irreducibility or a hernial faecal fistula. [2], [3] Heterotropic tissue of gastric, duodenal, pancreatic or colonic morphology has been reported to occur in 6 to 17% of [medknow.tv]

  The principal symptom is rectal bleeding, sometimes massive, due to the presence of gastric mucosa [5]. The incidence of Littre's hernia is unknown. Only few cases are found in the literature. [ispub.com]

  As there were no apparent peritoneal irritation findings, right-sided incarcerated inguinal hernia was reduced and the patient was scheduled for an elective herniorrhaphy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  This increase in the frequency of bowel movements could be attributed to partial occlusion of intestinal lumen(as occurs in a Ritcher's hernia) leading to irritation and inflammation of bowel. [jemds.com]

Treatment is by repair of the hernia, and excision of the diverticulum if possible. If acute Meckel's diverticulitis is present, the acute inflammatory mass may have to be treated through a separate abdominal incision. [gpnotebook.com]

The key points in nursing were management of the femoral incision and scrotum, maintenance of the drainage tubes, close observation of the wound and defecation, detection of any changes of abdominal symptoms, fever treatment, total parenteral nutrition [en.cnki.com.cn]

Prognosis After successful hernia repair, there is always the potential for recurrence. Modifiable patient risk factors for recurrence include elevated BMI, smoking, diabetes and steroid use. [statpearls.com]
