Incisional hernias are delayed complications of abdominal surgery and occur in 0.5-13.9 % of patients according to various reported series. The causative factors of incisional hernia are related to the condition of the patient, the main disease, surgical techniques and postoperative complications. The subcutaneous herniation of the left hepatic lobe through the abdominal wall is a rare condition.
