“…The tibialis anterior is regarded as the most frequently herniated muscle in the literature, as it is subjected to trauma more frequently [3][4][5]. In diagnosing muscle hernias, which are provoked especially as a result of extremity motion and become visible, ultrasonography (USG) is the preferred method because it is a dynamic imaging technique [6][7][8][9][10].…”

Extremity muscle hernias are rare pathologies, most of which are managed conservatively. In symptomatic cases, surgical intervention may be required. This study represents a case of a rarer muscle hernia, semimembranosus, in a 43-year-old patient and describes the surgical technique of grafting with synthetic nonabsorbable polypropylene surgical mesh as well as the review of the literature about extremity muscle hernias.

Constitutional bilateral defects in the peroneal fascial compartment leading to muscle herniation are extremely rare. We present the case of a twenty-nine year old male carpenter with non-traumatic bilateral peroneal fascial defects, in which the symptomatic right side was successfully repaired using a GraftJacket ® . This case report highlights the need for clinicians to remain aware of the diagnosis of muscle herniation as a cause of a painful mass in the lower limbs, especially when related to exercise. The judicious use of further imaging such as ultrasound in combination with MRI can be useful in differentiating a muscle hernia from other more sinister causes, such as malignancy.
