Background There are a lot of advancement in techniques of elective inguinal hernia surgery, but progress for management of complicated inguinal hernia repair in emergency, fall behind. The aim of study was to know age distribution, pattern of presentation, to evaluate the outcome of various types of surgical procedure done for complicated inguinal hernia and their post-operative complications. Methods and Materials This retrospective study included 62 patients suffering from complicated inguinal hernia,and who underwent emergency surgery, from Jan-2016to Dec-2019. Results The mean of age of sampled patients was 53.88 + 14.23 years, with increased incidence in males.Right sided, indirect inguinal hernia was frequently involved.Commonest postoperative complication was wound infection.Tension free repair Lichenstein’s technique (Hernioplasty) was done in maximum cases. Conclusion Mesh repair (hernioplasty) is acceptable and safe option for inguinal hernia repair in emergency setting. Early hospitalization and timely surgical intervention are associated with better outcome.

“…Goyal et al, in their prospective study on uncommon contents of inguinal hernial sac, reported that small bowel as the most common content in inguinal hernias followed by omentum, the observations are similar to the findings of present study. 18 Bekoe in his prospective review of 118 patients with incarcerated/strangulated inguinal hernias stated that he could find "no definite criterion" to differentiate incarcerated hernia with viable contents from the non-viable contents and cannot be diagnosed on clinical grounds. 19 Obstruction is associated with 50% risk of bowel ischemia.…”

Background: Inguinal hernias are the common causes of surgical admissions and referral of patients from primary physicians. Although we have made a great progress in treating hernia the management of its complications has progressed only a little. The aim of study was to determine the various modes of presentation, clinical features, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies and to evaluate the post-operative outcome in obstructed hernia surgeries.Methods: After obtaining written and informed consent from the patients, cases for the study were randomly selected from patients admitted to this tertiary care hospital for surgical intervention of inguinal hernias during the period between 2015 and 2017. Cases with inguinal hernias which had signs of obstruction and inability to reduce the hernia are taken up for emergency surgical intervention within 6-8 hours.Results: 53 obstructed inguinal hernia patients were evaluated and found that, incarceration was the commonest complication seen in 92.45% of cases followed by strangulation (7.54%). Viable bowel was seen 88.67% of cases. Bowel resection and end-to-end anastomosis was done in all cases of non-viable bowel. The commonest post-operative complication encountered in the study was wound infection (9.43%) and scrotal seroma (9.43%).Conclusions: The most common content was small bowel followed by omentum (52.8% and 35.8% respectively). Wound infection and seroma were the most common complications (9.43%) and mortality was observed in two patients (3.7%) and the causes of death were sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome.

“…The diagnosis can be easily confirmed by ultrasonography scan in most cases. However, for better anatomical illustration and details of the hernias and its boundaries as well as contents magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scan can be done [7]. The current case was successfully diagnosed preoperatively by ultrasound.…”

International Journal of Case Reports and Images (IJCRI) is an international, peer reviewed, monthly, open access, online journal, publishing high-quality, articles in all areas of basic medical sciences and clinical specialties.Aim of IJCRI is to encourage the publication of new information by providing a platform for reporting of unique, unusual and rare cases which enhance understanding of disease process, its diagnosis, management and clinico-pathologic correlations. Inguinal hernia is a common surgical problem; usually the bowel and omentum herniate through the defect. Herniation of the female reproductive organs is extremely rare. The aim of this study is to report a case of obstructed inguinal hernia with herniation of ovary and uterine tube. Case Report: A 14-year-old girl with a history of reducible left inguinal hernia was admitted to the emergency room. She had tender irreducible swelling of left groin associated with nausea for two days. IJCRI publishes ReviewOn examination there was irreducible tender left inguinal swelling. Ultrasound examination proved the diagnosis as irreducible left inguinal hernia containing left ovary with complex cystic content. Under general anesthesia, exploration of the left inguinal canal was done. The sac was opened; both ovary and fallopian tube were viable. The ovarian cyst was excised and the sac closed then reduced to the abdominal cavity. Round ligament was preserved and the posterior wall was reinforced by darning procedure. Conclusion:Inguinal hernia with ovarian and uterine tube herniation is a very rare disease. Management is by surgery with careful reduction of the content.
