Noun
/pəˌrɔːmˈbɪlɪkəl ˈhɜːrniə/
A paraumbilical hernia refers to a type of hernia that occurs near the navel (umbilicus). It typically involves a protrusion of tissue through an opening in the abdominal muscles. Paraumbilical hernias can be congenital (present at birth) or acquired, often occurring due to increased abdominal pressure, obesity, or surgical incisions.
The term is mostly used in medical contexts, particularly in discussions surrounding abdominal health, surgery, and pathology. It appears more frequently in written texts, such as medical literature or health guidelines, rather than in everyday oral speech.
У пациента был диагностирован параумбиликальный грыжа, требующий хирургического вмешательства.
Symptoms of a paraumbilical hernia include abdominal pain and a noticeable bulge around the belly button.
Симптомы параумбиликальной грыжи включают боль в животе и заметное выпячивание вокруг пупка.
A paraumbilical hernia can often be asymptomatic, leading many individuals to overlook the condition until it becomes more severe.
While paraumbilical hernia itself is primarily a clinical term and not commonly found in idiomatic expressions, it implies a broader context of health-related expressions. However, it is worth noting idiomatic expressions that refer to health issues generally:
Наши планы сработали не так, когда мы не смогли получить финансирование.
Bellyache - To complain or express discomfort.
Он всегда жалуется на свою работу.
Full of beans - To be lively or energetic.
The word paraumbilical is formed from two parts: "para-" which is a prefix derived from Greek meaning "beside" or "near," and "umbilical," which comes from the Latin "umbilic-us," referring to the navel. The term "hernia" originates from the Latin "hernia," meaning "a rupture."
The term paraumbilical hernia is specific to a location in the abdomen and does not have direct antonyms, as it describes a particular condition. However, hernias generally can be differentiated by location.
