Laparoscopic Management of a Recurrent, Inguinal Hernia Containing Urinary Bladder: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Background

Inguinal hernia is one of the most common causes of surgeries around the world; however, the herniation of the urinary bladder as a recurrence in this region is rare. It can have urinary symptoms with pain and protrusion in the inguinoscrotal region. Case Presentation: We report the case of a 65-year-old Iranian male patient who presented with obstructive urinary symptoms and a reducible protrusion in the right inguinoscrotal region. The patient underwent a successful repairment operation in a laparoscopic manner without any intra- or postoperative complications. Also, here, we review the risk factors, symptoms, and paraclinics that should be noted regarding the inguinal hernia with visceral organ protrusion.

Conclusion

Clinicians must be aware of different symptoms of herniated organs in the inguinal region to avoid unwanted complications.
