“…[510] It can also be difficult to distinguish from soft-tissue tumors such as inguinal lymphadenopathy and lipoma, endometrioma and from femoral hernia. [7111213] We operated our 1 patient immediately with the pre-diagnosis of incarcerated inguinal hernia; however, during the operation we understood that it was multiloculated cyst of the canal of Nuck. The patient with reducible mass got a diagnosis of pre-op inguinal hernia and during operation it was observed that the cyst is connected to peritoneal cavity through patent processus vaginalis.…”

Background:Cyst of the canal of Nuck is a rare cause of inguinal swelling in female infants and children.Aim:The purpose of this study is to discuss the clinical, radiological, and histopathological findings, differential diagnosis, and surgical treatment of this disease in the light of our experience.Materials and Methods:This study was conducted in six children who were operated on with cyst of the canal of Nuck at the pediatric surgery clinic in July 1998-March 2013. All information was collected from patient's files and computer records retrospectively.Results:Patients were between the ages of 1 and 12 years. Size of the cysts has varied between 23 mm and 55.2 mm. In all cases, cyst was on the right side. In physical examination while five cases had palpable, well-circumscribed, mobile and painless mass, in one case the mass was immobile. In one patient, the mass was reducible; in the other 5 patients the mass was non-reducible. First patient was operated immediately with the early diagnosis of incarcerated inguinal hernia, the second one was operated under elective conditions with early diagnosis of inguinal hernia and it was diagnosed during operation, and in the last 4 patients pre-operative true diagnosis was possible.Conclusions:As clinical findings of the cyst of the canal of Nuck are variable, pre-operative true diagnosis can only be related to increasing experience.

“…In this study, the highest incidence of lateral inguinal hernia was found in male participants (31; 77.7%), which is in accordance with previous literatures. The incidence of lateral inguinal hernia in men is 4-6 times that of women (3,(18)(19)(20) . Other studies stated the ratio of men: women 3: 1 and 10: 1.…”

“…Abnormalities of the closure of the processus vaginalis can cause various kinds of disorders including lateral inguinal hernia, communicating or non-communicating hydrocele funiculli, testicular hydrocele, cryptorchidism. The incidence rate of lateral inguinal hernias in infants or children is 1-4.4%, in which it is mostly found in boys than girls, and 10-15% are bilateral (3) .…”

Objective: Reporting the incidence of contralateral patent processus vaginali (CPPV) in pediatric patients with unilateral inguinal hernia. Methods: The study was conducted from November 2010 -February 2012. Patient's identity were recorded for registration number, name, age, gender, address and date of examination. The surgery was conducted by a trainee pediatric surgeon as a researcher and resident. High ligation procedure and diagnostic of contralateral PPV. Results: This study included 40 pediatric patients of various ages diagnosed with lateral inguinal hernia. There were 31 male patients (77.5%), 24 patients (60%) with right inguinal hernia patients, and 14 patients (35%) aged 0-1 years. Conclusion: The transinguinal laparoscopic contralateral PPV technique is helpful in diagnosing the presence of contralateral PPV. The incidence of contralateral PPV in this study was 27.5%. Furthermore, early age increased the incidence of contralateral PPV.

“…In the present study, factors affecting the outcome of femoral inguinal hernia development were retrospectively investigated. According to a previous study[4], approximately 60% femoral hernias occur on the right side of the body, 30% on the left side and 10% are bilateral. In the present study, 59.32% femoral…”

Aim: The study aims to investigate the risk factors of patients with femoral hernia as well as factors that affect the hospitalisation process, morbidity and mortality, particularly in terms of gender. Material and Methods: A total of 65 femoral hernia surgeries were performed in 29 Mayıs Public Hospitals between January 1, 2015 and June 30, 2019. Six patients with incomplete or unclear data were excluded, and the data of 59 patients were analysed. Percentage and frequency were used for discrete variables, whereas mean and standard deviation for continuous variables. Student's t-test was used for independent variables according to the distribution status, whereas chi-square test was used for dichotomous variables, and the results for binary logistic regression were obtained. Results: Males were significantly more likely to have femoral hernia risk during old age [66.11years vs. 52.68 years (p=0.004), adjusted odds ratio (AOR): [0.87 (0.784, 0.969)(p= 0.011)]. In student's t-test, male patients had shorter length of hospital stay (LOS). Hovewer the p value was found 0.79. In the binary multiple logistic regression for LOS value; In terms of gender, body mass index (BMI, kg/m2), age and complications; P value was found as 0.07 and ; AOR was found 2.2. With this result; The females have got the more LOS value than men as statistichally, for p=0.1 value. Conclusion: Femoral hernia frequently occurs in women; however, we found that its higher incidence is also can be found in men during old age, and after surgery, men are generally discharged earlier than women.
