“…Ielpo and colleagues described two cases of giant pseudocyst formation after open inguinal hernia repair, both requiring open excision of the pseudocapsule [4]. Surgical intervention was performed in our case due to failure of multiple percutaneous drainage, and the reported success with sclerotherapy in the literature is variable [2][3][4].…”

Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair is the preferred approach in most centers. One of the most common complications encountered is seroma. Majority are asymptomatic and resolve with time. Very rarely, the seroma can lead to the formation of a giant pseudocyst. Hereby, we described a case of recurrent seroma leading to a giant pseudocyst post-laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair that failed conservative management requiring laparoscopic fenestration of the pseudocyst.

“…8,9 Pseudocysts have also been reported to form as a complication of inguinal hernia repair. 10 Pseudocysts generally present as protrusions in the abdominal wall located at the site of former incision. The lesion is generally non-tender and develops over a period of months.…”

We report clinical details and imaging findings of a case of a giant pseudocyst occurring in the anterior abdominal wall of a 61-year-old female. This was a late complication following the repair of an incisional hernia with mesh. Surgical excision revealed a well-encapsulated pseudocyst with histopathology confirming absence of epithelial cells. We further discuss current treatment methods for incisional hernias, as well as prevalence, etiology, and management of pseudocysts complicating hernioplasty.

“…Chronic fluid collections leading to an inguinal canal pseudocyst are exceedingly rare with only two previous cases reported [ 7 ]. In contrast to the previously reported case, the patient in the present report had undergone a laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair rather than a Lichtenstein approach as reported by Ielpo et al In their experience, this Spanish group found that the pseudocyst was incorporated onto the anteriorly placed mesh.…”
