hernia inguinalis

BACKGROUND: Inguinal hernia containing the uterus in pediatric patients with normal karyotype and phenotype is an extremely rare entity, and no consensus is available concerning diagnosis, surgical management, and follow-up. METHODS: A systematic review according to the Synthesis Without Meta-analysis protocol was conducted. Studies including pediatric female patients with inguinal hernia containing the uterus were searched. Keywords and mesh term searches were conducted (Medline, Scopus, and Web of Science)...

Összefoglaló. Bevezetés: A colon sigmoideum diverticulosisa veleszületett vagy szerzett lehet. Az óriás vastagbél diverticulum (Giant Colonic Diverticulum, GCD), amelyet 4 cm-nél nagyobb diverticulumként definiálnak, ritka, de klinikailag fontos entitás. A McNutt (1988) osztályozást használják az óriás diverticulumok három alcsoportjának megkülönböztetésére. Az 1-es típusú diverticulumok pulziós pseudo-diverticulumok, amelyek fokozatosan növekszenek. A 2-es típusú diverticulumok gyulladásos eredetűek; egy korábbi suberosalis perforáció után alakulnak ki, ahol a tályogüreg kommunikál a bél lumenével, és a tályogfal fokozatosan rostonyás hegszövetté alakul, melyből hiányoznak a bél szövettani rétegei...

Persistent Mullerian duct syndrome is a rare form disorder of sexual differentiation characterised by the persistence of Mullerian derivatives (fallopian tubes, uterus and the proximal vagina) in males with an XY karyotype and normal virilisation. We report a case of a 29-year-old man with right transverse testicular ectopia, mix germ cell cancer at ectopic right testis and left-sided obstructed inguinal hernia containing a uterus and fallopian tube. We performed orchiectomy and hysterectomy on the patient.

Összefoglaló. Esetismertetések: 66 éves nő vizsgálatai irreponibilis fájdalmas inguinalis terime miatt kezdődtek. Ultrahangvizsgálat során a panaszok hátterében femoralis sérvben kizárt gangraenás appendix vermiformis igazolódott. Inguinalis metszésből appendectomiát és hernioplasticát végeztünk. Posztoperatív szövődménye nem volt, szövettana appendicitist igazolt. Pár héttel később egy 76 éves, több társbetegséggel rendelkező férfi fájdalmas, sercegő gangraenás, jobb inguinalis terime miatt került átvételre...

BACKGROUND: Amyand's hernia is a rare condition approximately 0.4-0.6% of all inguinal hernias. Although rare, the Amyand's hernia is worthy of discussion since the variable presentation that make clinical challenge to diagnose especially in infant. A mesenteric chylous cyst is rare disease and has not been reported in Amyand's hernia. CASE PRESENTATION: We report an unusual case of Type II Amyand's hernia with an enlarging chylous mesenteric cyst on the retrocaecal in the anulus into canalis inguinalis...

BACKGROUND: The cricothyroid area is an atypical localisation for placement of basal cell carcinomas. The main differential diagnosis for cutaneous tumours in this area is between BCC, spinocellular carcinoma and melanoma. The area is problematic about the choice of therapeutic approach, especially in the case of a vague clinical tumour type accompanied by enlarged lymph nodes in the immediate proximity. CASE REPORT: We present an 84- year- old woman with a tumour formation located next to the left cricothyroid area...

CONTEXT: Persistent Mullerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a rare disorder. It is a type of male pseudohermaphroditism, usually presenting as "Hernia Uteri Inguinalis". AIMS: This study aims to present our experience of PMDS, over a 7-year period. SETTINGS AND DESIGN: Our center is a tertiary care facility, situated in Tamil Nadu, a southern state of India. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: This is a retrospective study. The study period was from 2007 to 2015...

Neonate with ambiguous genitalia can cause great apprehension for the family as well as for healthcare providers. We report a rare complication of delayed diagnosis of hernia uteri inguinalis in ovotesticular disorder of sexual differentiation (DSD) in 20-year-old male patient who presented with pain and swelling in left inguinal region since 1 month. He had a past surgical history of repair of hypospadias 10 years back. On imaging, the left inguinal hernia sac contained nonfunctioning uterus and one ovary in the left scrotal sac and one testis in the right scrotal sac...

BACKGROUND: Neuralgia after inguinal hernia repair is a known but potential invalidating complication with a reported incidence of 10-12%. Diagnosis and treatment can be challenging. Based on a case report and literature review, disease aspects and treatment options including laparoscopic (triple) neurectomy are discussed. METHODS: A case of laparoscopic treated neuralgia after hernia inguinalis repair is reported. After an extensive MeSH-term based literature search, 26 articles were included for in-depth analysis and literature review...

Hernia uteri inguinalis (HUI) is one of the rarest causes of male pseudo-hermaphroditism worldwide. We report the case of a 49-year-old male with discovery of this anomaly during inguinal hernia repair. A 49-year-old man presented to the clinic for recurrent inguinal hernia with enlarging left scrotum consistent with hydrocele on imaging. Upon exploration of the left groin, the left testis was pulled up into the abdomen, revealing a uterus, fallopian tube, and a second atrophic testis. Despite the rarity of HUI, the differential diagnosis for inguinal hernia with associated cryptorchidism and/or hydrocele should include this rare form of pseudohermaphroditism...

Ovotesticular disorders of sexual development result in the presence of both testis and ovarian tissue. Most commonly, gonadal structures in the scrotum or inguinal canal are comprised of testis tissue. The presence of a uterus within an inguinal hernia sac in a phenotypically male patient is referred to as hernia uteri inguinalis. This condition has rarely been reported in patients with ovotesticular disorders of sexual development. We present a patient with rare mosaicism in combination with an unusual location of Müllerian duct structures within an inguinal hernia sac...

INTRODUCTION: Persistent Mullerian duct syndrome is a rare form of male pseudo-hermaphroditism characterized by the presence of Mullerian duct structures in an otherwise phenotypically, as well as genotypically, normal man; only a few cases have been reported in the worldwide literature. A great variety of organs have been found in indirect inguinal hernial sacs. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We report a case of 70 year old man, father of 4 children with unilateral cryptorchidism on the right side and left-sided obstructed inguinal hernia containing uterus and fallopian tube (that is, hernia uteri inguinalis; type I male form of persistent Mullerian duct syndrome) coincidentally detected during an operation for an obstructed left inguinal hernia...

The article reports the incidence of multiple inguinal protrusions in the same groin in a patient collect who underwent open hernia repair. Multiple ipsilateral inguinal hernias compose an almost neglected topic that, if not identified during hernia repair, could lead to unclear discomfort, pain, and reoperation. A collect of 100 consecutive open anterior inguinal hernia procedures was analyzed. The patients were divided into two subsets-A: patients with a single protrusion and B: patients with more than one protrusion simultaneously arising from the inguinal floor...

An 18-year-old phenotypic male presented with an irreducible left inguinal mass, gynecomastia, and hypospadias. This mass on exploration was found to be a nonfunctional uterus with ipsilateral ovary and was excised. Further investigation confirmed the presence of a contralateral testis and a genotype of 46, XX. This confirmed the diagnosis of ovotesticular disorder of sexual differentiation (formerly true hermaphroditism) with obstructed hernia uteri inguinalis. The patient was raised as a male. Subcutaneous mastectomy for gynecomastia and neourethra construction with full thickness skin graft for hypospadias were performed...

The female internal sex organs develop from the paramesonephric (Mullerian) duct. In male embryos, the regression of the Mullerian duct is caused by the anti-Mullerian hormone (AMH), which plays an important role in the process of testicular descent. The physiological remnant of the Mullerian duct in males is the appendix testis (AT). In our previous study, we presented evidence for the decreased incidence of AT in cryptorchidism with intraoperative surgery. In this report, the expression of the anti-Mullerian hormone receptor type 2 (AMHR2), the specific receptor of AMH, on the AT was investigated in connection with different urological disorders, such as hernia inguinalis, torsion of AT, cysta epididymis, varicocele, hydrocele testis and various forms of undescended testis...

BACKGROUND: The study is focused on recognizing the histological changes of the structures close to and around the hernia opening in patients having direct inguinal hernia. METHODS: In 15 patients with primary bilateral direct inguinal hernia who underwent a Stoppa open posterior inguinal hernia repair, tissue specimens from the abdominal wall surrounding a direct hernia border were excised for histological examination. These findings in patients with direct inguinal hernia were compared with tissue specimens excised from the fossa inguinalis media of cadavers without hernia...

INTRODUCTION: Persistent Mullerian duct syndrome is a rare form of male pseudo-hermaphroditism characterized by the presence of Mullerian duct structures in an otherwise phenotypically, as well as genotypically, normal man; only a few cases have been reported in the worldwide literature. We report the case of a 30-year-old man with unilateral cryptorchidism on the right side and a left-sided obstructed inguinal hernia containing a uterus and fallopian tube (that is, hernia uteri inguinalis; type I male form of persistent Mullerian duct syndrome) coincidentally detected during an operation for an obstructed left inguinal hernia...

Persistent Mullerian Duct Syndrome (PMDS), a rare form of male pseudohermaphroditism, is characterized by the persistence of Mullerian duct structures (uterus, fallopian tubes and upper two-thirds of vagina) in otherwise normallyvirilized males (Karyotype 46XY). Patients suffering from PMDS present with cryptorchidism, inguinal hernia and infertility. Diagnosis is established when Mullerian duct structures are discovered either during ultrasonography for localization of undescended testis(s), during surgical exploration for cryptorchidism or herniorrhaphy (hernii uteri inguinalis)...
