The doctor diagnosed the patient with a laparocele, a protrusion of the abdominal contents through a weakness in the abdominal wall.

Laparoceles are typically caused by a combination of factors, including increased abdominal pressure, a weakened abdominal wall, and a congenital defect.

The most common symptom of a laparocele is a visible bulge in the abdomen, which may be accompanied by pain, discomfort, or a feeling of fullness.

In some cases, a laparocele can cause intestinal obstruction, which can lead to serious complications.
