Rare Case of Hernia of the Bladder Diverticulum in the Inguinal Region: A Case Report.

Background and Objective: Bladder hernias occur in 1% to 4% of cases in the inguinal area. The hernial sac may contain any part of the bladder, such as the bladder diverticulum, all or part of the bladder and ureter. Most of these hernias are diagnosed during surgery. Delay in diagnosis can lead to serious complications and even death. The aim of this case report is to introduce a patient with a rare hernia of the bladder diverticulum in the inguinal region. Case Report: The patient is a 58-year-old man who referred to Namazi Hospital in Shiraz with a bulge in the right inguinal region with symptoms of incarcerated hernia. The patient complained of pain and swelling in the right inguinal region and did not show any signs or symptoms of urinary tract involvement. During laparotomy, the mass was found to be connected to the bladder and the patient underwent inguinal hernia repair. The patient was discharged from the hospital one day after the operation without any problems. No complications were reported in follow-up two months after surgery. Conclusion: According to our report, hernia of the urinary bladder diverticulum in the inguinal region may be asymptomatic. Therefore, accurate reporting of the patient's history and previous problems and diseases is required for careful surgical planning to prevent severe complications, including bladder injury in these people.
