Bilateral giant inguinoscrotal hernia with hydrocele. A case report

Abstract

Giant inguinoscrotal hernia (GIH) is a high morbidity and mortality disease. Giant inguinoscrotal hernia containing omentum, intestinal segments or urinary bladder is a challenging surgical disease. The patient was diagnosed with bilateral giant inguinoscrotal hernia at the age of 81. The case had 22 years history of this uncommon disease. Ultrasound revealed a voluminous hernia sac containing bowel loops, greater omentum, and hydrocele. According the new classification of GIH, the patient was type II. He underwent complete surgical hernioplasty involving omentectomy and orchiectomy. After the surgery, any emerging complications were closely monitored. When giant inguinoscrotal hernia is diagnosed, operation should be recommended immediately. Treatment procedure of hernia should be according the classification of GIH. The Lichtenstein tension-free technique seems to be the best surgical procedure for the patient who have bilateral hernia. It should be used whenever possible in such cases. The patients should be carefully follow up postoperative in terms of abdominal compartment syndrome and respiratory insufficiency.
