“…One of the possible mechanisms of such presentation is the weakness of the uterine and ovarian suspensory ligament. That's what Thompson noticed assuming there is the failure of fusion of the Mullerian ducts, it leads to an increase in the mobility of the ovary and uterus, expanding the chance of herniation of the ovary, fallopian tubes, and uterus into the inguinal canal (14). These structures in the hernia can lead to unwanted consequences.…”

Herniation of the ovaries is a rare congenital anomaly that may be complicated by strangulation, torsion, and infertility. Female pelvic structures such as the ovaries, fallopian tubes, ligaments, and uterus can rarely enter inside a hernial sac. The Aim of this review was to emphasise the fact that early intervention can save ovary from complication and infertility of the patient. A systematic search was conducted from literature published up to 2013 using the Google Scholar™ databases along with the references of the full-text articles retrieved. Papers on observational studies and case reports concerning ovaries in the inguinal canal were considered eligible for inclusion in the review. Seventeen papers comprising 24 patients (mean age45.5) were evaluated. A left-sided hernia was noted in 18 cases (75%) whereas 4 patients had a right-sided hernia(25%).This case is unique in its existence because of age of presentation (0ne Month) and comormids of horse shoe kidney. Ovarian inguinal hernias can present as early as on day one of birth. Thorough history and examination followed by investigations can lead to prompt and adequate treatment. In women of reproductive age, repair of the hernia with the intent to preserve fertility is of critical importance.

“…It is pertinent to mention that laxity of ligament, specifically broad ligament in focus, can lead to untoward consequences such as prolapse and unusual hernias, due to this reason a laparoscopic approach is preferred to minimize said consequence [ [11] , [12] , [13] ].…”

PurposeThe aim of this study is to investigate the technique and practical significance of using a simple hernia needle in single-port laparoscopic herniorrhaphy in pediatric patients.MethodsThe study conducted a retrospective analysis of all pediatric patients who underwent treatment for inguinal hernia using single-port laparoscopic herniorrhaphy with a simple hernia needle at Yellow River Sanmenxia Hospital from June 2018 to May 2023. The medical records of all the children were collected, and clinical characteristics, procedural information, and follow-up data were carefully reviewed.ResultsA total of 848 patients underwent inguinal hernia repair, with ages ranging from 7 months to 13 years (2.99 ± 2.49 years), including 756 males and 92 females. A total of 528 cases of unilateral hernia and 310 cases of bilateral hernia were reported, with intra-operative findings revealing contralateral occult hernia in 253 cases. Single-port laparoscopic herniorrhaphy was successfully completed in all patients, with no instances of conversion to open surgery. The mean operation time for unilateral hernia repair was (7.50 ± 4.80) min, while for bilateral hernia repair it was (11.55 ± 7.27) min. Five patients presented with subcutaneous emphysema, while two patients experienced a recurrence of inguinal hernia. No complications, such as scrotal hematoma, trocar umbilical hernia and testicular atrophy, were observed. The duration of the follow-up period ranged from 3 to 24 months.ConclusionThe promotion and utilization of single-port laparoscopy combined with a simple hernia needle in clinical practice are justified. Our initial investigation indicates that this surgical approach is both safe and dependable for the management of pediatric inguinal hernia. The procedure presents numerous benefits, including the utilization of uncomplicated instruments, straightforward operation, a clear curative impact, minimal tissue damage, rapid recovery, and the absence of scarring.
