Herniation of the bladder into the inguinal canal is a rare condition. It is mostly asymptomatic but symptoms such as dysuria, sudden and severe urge to urinate, nocturia and haematuria may also be observed. Early diagnosis of inguinal bladder hernia is important to minimize potential complications and those that may arise during treatment. In male patients over the age of fifty with unilateral inguinal swelling, possible bladder herniation should be considered, and when necessary, computed tomography and other radiological imaging methods should be used in addition to ultrasonography. We aimed to present our case of bladder herniation accompanying inguinal hernia, supported by the literature.
