Abstract: Hedrocele represents an unusual variant of the rare posterior perineal hernia and results from a defect in the rectogenital septum. We report two cases of obstructive defecation syndrome (ODS) related to presence of hedrocele successfully treated by laparoscopy-assisted transanal surgery.
