Colorectal cancer is a rising problem, as the incidence increases with age. In most cases the goal of treatment is oncological resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy in order to optimize the survival. In this case report we present a 93-year-old patient with a sigmoid carcinoma inside an irreducible inguinal hernia, which was diagnosed prior to surgery. We chose to perform a sigmoid resection through an oblique inguinal incision as a safer alternative to laparotomy.

Abstract Although inguinal hernias are common, inguinal herniation of the urinary bladder wall is rare. Moreover, the complete migration of the urinary bladder into the scrotum is considered less frequent. The majority of patients with bladder hernias are asymptomatic and diagnosis is made intraoperatively; however, difficulties in urination may lead to the correct diagnosis. We report about a case of a large right-sided scrotal hernia with complete bladder herniation presenting without urological symptoms.

Abstract Aim Inguinal hernias containing the ureter and retroperitoneal contents are uncommon. We present a robotic repair of a large inguinal-scrotal hernia containing the ureter as a video case presentation. Material and Methods A 66 year old male with no previous abdominal surgical history presents with a large left sided inguinal-scrotal hernia, as well as smaller ventral and right inguinal hernias. On CT imaging the patient was found to have an ectopic pelvic location of the left kidney with evidence of the left ureter coursing into the hernia with a significant amount of retroperitoneal fat. The patient was taken to the operating room for a robotic bilateral inguinal hernia repair and ventral hernia repair. Results A ureteral catheter was placed preoperatively and instilled with indocyanine green (ICG). The hernias were successfully repaired, and intraoperative fluorescence imaging was successfully used to visualize the ureter as it was reduced with the hernia sac. The robotic platform significantly aided in dissection of the large volume of retroperitoneal fat, while being able to quickly transition to intraoperative fluorescence to clearly visualize the course of the ureter. The patient did well post operatively with no complications. Conclusions We present a video case report of a large ureter-containing inguinoscrotal hernia that was successfully repaired using a robotic preperitoneal approach. Use of the robotic platform and indocyanine green/intraoperative fluorescence imaging were helpful adjuncts in aiding dissection by improving intraoperative visualization of the ureter.
