Bladder involvement in inguinal hernia is relatively rare, 1–4%, although the incidence is increased to 10% with advancing age or obesity. There are several previously reported cases presenting with obstructive uropathy and renal failure, but all reversed with urinary diversion and hernia repair. We believe this to be the first reported case of bladder hernia leading to dialysis dependent chronic renal failure.

A 72-year-old man presented with urinary retention, weight loss, haematuria and severe acute kidney injury. He had never before been admitted to hospital and his past medical history included only an inguinal hernia. On examination, he appeared uraemic and had a right-sided painful hernia. A three-way catheter was inserted, bladder washouts performed and irrigation started. An ultrasound showed severe bilateral hydronephrosis and a ‘thickened bladder’ and this was thought to be obstructive uropathy secondary to bladder cancer. Twenty-four hours later his hernia doubled in diameter, became incarcerated and a CT of the abdomen and pelvis showed an inguinal hernia of both bladder and bowel, with the catheter tip inside the bladder hernia. He was taken to theatres and an open mesh repair was performed with a rigid cystoscopy to assist in locating and reducing the bladder. He required intensive care and dialysis postoperatively and remains on regular dialysis following discharge.

Chronic renal failure is fatal disease because it leads to failure of excretory ,metabolic and endocrine functions of the kidneys which lead to disturb all physiological functions of the body some of these derangements is fatal to human beings to save human these body disturbances by chronic renal failure is treated by renal transplant and dialysis in different ways including peritoneal dialysis (PD.). Chronic renal failure is a common disease in patients attending Ramadi teaching hospital whom treated by peritoneal dialysis (PD) with variable results . So this study is introduced to detect the health status for managing chronic renal failure treated by peritoneal dialysis. All patients were 100 patients (53 male and 47 female) with CRF who admitted to the medical word in Al-Ramadi teaching hospital during a period from November 2008 till July 2009. Thorough history, examination and investigations were done for them including: hemoglobin, ESR ,blood urea, serum creatinine, ECG and abdominal U/S then PD was done for them according to their indications. The study showed that male was 53% with the age between 13 and 87 years while the female was 47% with the age between 12 and 91 years. Diabetes mellitus (DM) and hypertension (HT) were the most common cause of CRF. The outcome was: 30%complete improvement, 21% partial improvement, 26% less responsive and 23% died. In the last months of my study there was significant improvement. Inconclusion; DM and HT were the most common causes of CRF respectively; however obstructive uropathy had a notable ratio. There was no significant difference regarding sex. The outcome of PD was poor early in my study with significant improvements later.

The prevalence of hepatitis C virus [HCV] RNA in 80 patients with chronic renal diseases was determined. Two sets of primers from the non-coding region of the hepatitis C virus were used. The products [188 bp] amplified by polymerase chain reaction were visualized by 2% agarose gel electrophoresis stained with ethidium bromide. The patients were classified into four groups. Group I comprised 40 adult patients with end-stage renal disease, 31 of whom were positive for HCV-RNA [77.5%] ; group II, 22 children with glomerulopathies, 15 of whom were positive [68.2%] ; group III, 9 children with chronic renal failure of unverified etiology, 6 of whom were positive [66.6%] ; group IV, 9 children with chronic renal failure due to obstructive uropathy of whom 3 [33.3%] were positive. We conclude that HCV may infect a high percentage of patients with chronic renal failure or renal parenchymatous disease
