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

A rare presentation of ectopic ovary in a female adolescent and the impact of obesity: a case report

“…A preoperative ultrasound scan played a vital role in establishing the diagnosis of an ectopic inguinal ovary in our case. Ectopic inguinal ovaries are usually associated with urinary malformations [6], or internal genital malformations, when occurring in women of reproductive age [12]. There is limited published data on patients presenting with ectopic inguinal ovaries and normally developed urinary and genital system, as was observed in our patient [9].…”

Inguinal uterus, fallopian tube, and ovary associated with adult Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome

“…Repositioning and herniorrhaphy are advisable as soon as the condition is recognized, irrespective of m€ ullerian status. This repositioning may be performed by an open or laparoscopic approach (19). In our patient, reduction and repair were performed by the open method because of the significant hernia size, its unusual contents, and the contemplated biopsy procedure; an intra-peritoneal approach was not appropriate in view of the solitary pelvic kidney on the same side.…”

A rare case of Mullerian agenesis with descent of gonads

“…Marionkovic et al had reported a case of prolapse irreducible ovary and had recommended urgent operative repositioning of ovary 2 but Vaughn et al had suggested laparoscopic approach to this inguinal hernia. 3 The migration of gonads is controlled by multiple factors both anatomical and hormonal, which should occur in appropriate time and correct sequence. The presence of ovaries in the inguinal hernia was previously thought to be prolapse but now is assumed as descended gonads like testes.…”
