Prevascular Groin Hernia: Not Easy To Diagnose

Journal Title: Isra Medical Journal - Year 2018, Vol 10, Issue 2

Abstract

Occult groin hernias are rare and clinically difficult to diagnose because they are not routinely looked for. MRI is the most accurate preoperative diagnostic tool in suspected cases. A sound knowledge of groin anatomy and meticulous preperitoneal inspection of all possible rare groin hernias sites should be done to diagnose and treat all defects. We are presenting a case of rare prevascular hernia which was diagnosed per-operatively and treated successfully. KEY WORDS: occult hernia, prevascular hernia, groin hernia, diagnosis, treatment HOW TO CITE THIS: Ahmed I, Ishtiaq S. Prevascular Groin Hernia: Not Easy to Diagnose.
