Abstract

Two children with superior lumbar hernias are presented in this report. The first one had many additional anomalies different from the literature and the other one is the second case report of congenital lumbar hernia with posterior meningomyelocele in the literature. Operative repair is recommended for these patients before 12 months of age.
