Abstract

Ureteral inguinoscrotal hernias are a rare occurrence and commonly occur without evidence of obstructive uropathy. We present a patient found on a preoperative CT scan to have a recurrent left inguinal hernia with the left ureter passing through the hernia defect adjacent to the hernia sac into the scrotum. At surgery the redundant dilated ureter required a ureteroureterostomy because it could not be safely straightened or reduced. Preoperative imaging allowed for identification of the ureter in the hernia sac and allowed for extensive preoperative planning with the urology team, and efficient definitive treatment of his condition at the time of surgery.
