    Too small to be “real hernia” …. ultrasound vs MRI?

    I see a lot of women and they tend to have very very small but symptomatic hernias. Hernia repair cures their pain. We presented our data in Milan about this at the World Hernia Congress, to prove that 87% of these patients with hidden/occult hernias are cured of their pain.

    In my world, with the right exam and history, yes, a 4mm piece of fat can cause hernia pain.
