Gastric Inguinoscrotal Hernia.

A 75-year-old man presented to our facility with a 5-day history of hematemesis. He reported a left inguinoscrotal hernia that had been present since 1990. Physical examination demonstrated an incarcerated inguinoscrotal hernia. Abdominal computed tomography revealed the stomach, small, and large bowel in the hernia. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed food and brownish liquid in the stomach. Neither the antrum nor the pylorus could be identified during the esophagogastroduodenoscopy, consistent with an incarcerated portion of the stomach. Blood was not seen in the examined portion of the gastrointestinal tract. He was emergently treated with surgical intervention.
