Abstract

We describe that case of a 54 year old lady with achondroplasia who presented with ongoing left sided abdominal pain. Ultrasound and abdominal computerized tomography images demonstrated an enlarged left ovary and Fallopian tube trapped between the rectus abdominus and the lateral semilunar line under cover of the external oblique aponeurosis. A left sided salpingoophrectomy with mesh herniorrhaphy was performed and histological analysis confirmed the hernia contents were a hydrosalpinx and normal ovary. This case report presents the unusual radiographic images and intraoperative photographs of an ovarian Speglian hernia.
