Preoperative gross (A) and ultrasonographic appearance of the ventral midline hernia using a 5 MHz convex abdominal ultrasound probe in transverse (B) and longitudinal (C) planes revealing peritoneal fluid filling the hernia sac. Measurement markings on right side of the ultrasound images indicate 0.5-cm intervals. E indicates the cranial and lateral margins of the defect.
