Laparoscopic repair of bilateral inguinal hernias in a patient with müllerian agenesis.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:To report a case of laparoscopic repair of bilateral inguinal hernias in a patient with müllerian agenesis. DESIGN:Case report. SETTING:Hospital. PATIENT(S):An 18-year-old woman with müllerian agenesis who presented with symptomatic inguinal hernias containing ovaries. INTERVENTION(S):Laparoscopic repair of bilateral inguinal hernias. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):Hernia repair was accomplished laparoscopically. RESULT(S):Outpatient laparoscopic repair of bilateral inguinal hernias with reduction of ovaries was performed using an extraperitoneal approach without complication. CONCLUSION(S):Laparoscopic approach of inguinal hernias can be an option for surgical repair in patients with müllerian agenesis even when the hernias contain ovaries.
