A soft swelling under an old midline laparotomy scar with an expansile cough impulse is an incisional hernia. Its main complication is intestinal obstruction (incarceration or strangulation of bowel in the sac).
- An aortoduodenal fistula is a complication of the aortic graft, not of the swelling described.
- The other options are unrelated to an abdominal wall hernia.
