Inguinoscrotal bladder hernia detected by SPECT/CT on bone scintigraphy

Journal Title: Ege Tıp Dergisi - Year 2019, Vol 58, Issue 3

Abstract

Inguinal hernia containing bladder is an uncommon and usually asymptomatic condition that occurs at the inguinal canal, scrotal sac or femoral canal. Incidentally detection of inguinal hernia of bladder by bone scintigraphy has been rarely presented in the literature and usually verified by CT or ultrasonography. Single photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography (SPECT/CT) is helpful to evaluate and locate precisely an area of abnormal activity that can be present on the planar scintigraphy. In this report, we aimed to describe a case of inguinoscrotal bladder herniation diagnosed by SPECT/CT that is mimicking pubic bone metastasis on bone scintigraphy in a 65-year-old male patient with prostate cancer.
