ABSTRACT:
Sliding inguinal scrotal herniation of the bladder is
rare but well-documented in the medical literature. The majority of the
patients are asymptomatic and the hernia is usually diagnosed
incidentally. Most authors had advocated surgically repair of the hernia with
the reduction or resection of the bladder as the definitive management. We
present an unusual case of inguinal scrotal herniation of the bladder presented
as acute abdominal pain and treated with conservatively with urethral
catheterization.
