Scrotal Abdomen As We See It! Our Experience of a Case of Large Inguinal Hernia

Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 3

Abstract

Giant inguinal hernia is rare. These may be asymptomatic or present with the complications. Contents vary from colon, small gut, vermiform appendix, mesentery, to omentum. We present a case of giant inguinoscrotal hernia in a 80-year-old male without any complications. Surgery via inguinoscrotal approach revealed that contents were small and large intestines, omentum and mesentery. Reduction of contents into abdominal cavity through the internal ring with a double layer closure of wall was done. To our surprise, there was no single adhesion either to the sac and its contents or in between the contents.
