Dr. Manish Baria, Dr. Ankita Parmar

Abstract :

Background Complicated inguinal hernias pose a threat to the life of the patient as well as increase the morbidity associated with management of an otherwise straightforward condition. Aim The aim of this study was to determine the presentation, treatment and management outcome of complicated inguinal hernias in our set up. Methods The study was carried out among 50 patients admitted in the Department of General Surgery of our institute during the period of 2011 to 2013 with complicated inguinal hernia. Data obtained included demographic characteristics, presentation, operative findings and outcome. Conclusions From the present study it is evident that most patients of complicated inguinal hernias present with painful irreducible inguinoscrotal swellings. These swellings if not taken care of, then of course progress to obstruction and strangulation.
