A Rare Presentation of Urinary Bladder Diverticula as an Inguinal Hernia - A Case Report

Abstract

Inguinal Bladder Hernia (IBH) is a common disorder requiring adequate surgical management. Association with multiple organs is prevalent but bladder involvement is rare, with 1-3% of inguinal hernias. Patients are generally asymptomatic and difficult to diagnose thus presenting as an incidental finding or diagnosed during surgery. Most literature advocate surgical repair as a standard, an open surgical approach is preferred more than laparoscopic.
