“…When faced with pyometra in an inguinal hernia, Sen managed to push the uterus back into the abdominal cavity, then he performed a routine hysterectomy via a midline incision in the linea alba (Sen 1976). A similar case of pyometra with inguinal herniation was described recently (Byers et al. 2007).…”

Pyometra in an inguinal hernia was diagnosed in a 10-year-old intact cross-bred bitch which had had dysorexia, depression and inguinal distension. The hernia contained caudal portions of the two uterine horns, uterine cervix and cranial part of the vagina. As the organs were enlarged and full of pus, manual attempt to push back the uterine horns and the vagina in the abdominal cavity through the inguinal canal was unsuccessful. Herniated uterine horns were ligated and cut in their median portion, so it became possible to remove the cervix and the caudal portion of the horns through the hernial orifice, and the ovaries and the cranial part of the horns through a peritoneal midline incision. This bitch was not intended for breeding purposes and, given the presence of a huge pyometra associated with an inguinal hernia, an ovario-hysterectomy was recommended. Uterine herniation should be considered as a differential diagnosis of a caudal lateral inguinal mass. When pushing the uterus back in the abdominal cavity is impossible, a surgical procedure should be performed to detect ischemia–reperfusion injury and/or a septic risk.

“…In this case, a particularity was the passage of the two horns together into the hernial sack: usually, only one half of the internal genitalia is concerned (Sen 1976; Byers et al. 2007).…”

“…Although some inguinal hernia cases related to either healthy or infected uteruses have been reported (Sander, 1970;Munro and Stead, 1993;Kassay, 2003;Nak et al, 2004;Vivek et al, 2005;Byers et al, 2007), there are limited reports regarding gravid uterus in an inguinal hernia in bitches (De Bois, 1978;SeyrekIntas and Seyrek-Intas, 1993). In the present case, a pregnant left uterus horn was herniated thorough the canalis inguinalis and incarcerated severely.…”

A 3.5-year-old Boxer breed bitch was referred to our clinic with a history of progressive and painless inguinal mass on the left side with no significant general symptoms. Ultrasonographic examination of the inguinal mass and abdomen revealed a hypo echoic area covered with a hyper echoic capsule in inguinal mass and also two 40-day-old live foetuses, respectively. During ventral midline laparotomy, an incarcerated left uterus horn was detected in an inguinal hernia. A successful herniorraphy and ovariohysterectomy was performed in one session. A dead foetus was detected histopathologically in the herniated uterine horn. The main differential in this case was a severe incarceration and foetal death in the herniated uterus horn with no significant clinical and ultrasonographic findings. This condition did not affect either the general health condition of the bitch or the foetuses localized abdominally.

“…the region in the groin where the abdominal musculature meets the back legs. Factors potentially involved in the development of inguinal hernias may be anatomical, hormonal, and/or metabolic in nature; however the causes of inguinal herniation in small animals are poorly understood (Byers et al, 2007). Contents of inguinal hernia may include omentum, fat, ovary, uterus, small intestine, colon, bladder and spleen.…”

with a history of non-painful, non-reducible pendulous swelling (left side) on the caudal abdomen and a small perennial mass protruding through the vulva with no signs of discomfort. Abdominal radiography revealed protrusion of intestinal loops into the inguinal swelling confirming inguinal hernia Diagnosis of vaginal leiomyoma was confirmed by histopathology. Herniorrhaphy of the inguinal defect and surgical resection of the vaginal leiomyoma was performed under diazepam-ketamine anesthesia. No post-operative complications and reoccurrence of hernia and vaginal mass was reported up to one month after surgery. All copyrights reserved to Nexus® academic publishers
