Abstract

Introduction: Seroma formation after inguinal hernia repair is common and most of the seromas will resolve spontaneously without any intervention. If the seroma has not resolved by six weeks, it is not likely to resolve spontaneously. Large symptomatic inguinoscrotal pseudocyst formation after inguinal hernia repair is rare. Hence there is no consensus on how these cases should be managed. Case Series: We present two cases of large and symptomatic inguinoscrotal pseudocyst formation after inguinal surgery. Both patients underwent surgical excision of the pseudocyst after failed repeated aspiration. Both patients’ pseudocysts were successfully treated with no recurrence upon follow-up. Conclusion: Surgical excision remained the definitive treatment for symptomatic inguinoscrotal seroma.
