Abstract
Splenogonadal Discontinuous Fusion as a Transoperative Finding in Inguinal Hernia Surgery in children (Granado´s Hernia). Clinical case
Highlights
The first references about splenogonadal fusion were described by Boestrom in 1883 and Pomer in 1889
Our case is the first one reported in a child with a palpable mass in the inguinal region, similar to an inguinal hernia that can be reduced with inguinal plasty with a biopsy that reported splenic tissue
Petrick[6] in 1988 reported the largest series of this pathology with 87cases. It can appear in both sexes, it is much more frequent in men; clinically manifests as testicular or pratestic tumor being diagnosed during cryptorchidism or a hernia surgery inguinal as was our case
