ABSTRACT Inguinoscrotal bladder herniation has a reported incidence of 1 to 4%. Although small bladder herniations are noted at the time of inguinal hernia repair, large bladder herniation into the scrotum is rare. These patients have a unique presentation of signs and symptoms. We report a case of a male patient of age 64 years who had a large inguinoscrotal hernia with bladder. He successfully underwent hernioplasty after repositioning of the bladder. Now, he is symptom-free and on follow-up. How to cite this article: Mohan A, Srinivasan K. Scrotal Cystocele in a Sliding Left Inguinoscrotal Hernia: A Case Report and Review of Literature.

To review our experience and outcomes after inguinal hernia repair using the lightweight self-adhering sutureless mesh “Adhesix™” and demonstrate the safety and efficacy of this mesh. This is a 3-year retrospective study that included 143 consecutive patients who underwent 149 inguinal hernia repairs at our department of surgery. All hernias were repaired using a modified Lichtenstein technique. Preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative data were prospectively collected. Incidence of chronic pain, postoperative complications, recurrence, and patient satisfaction were assessed three years postoperatively by conducting a telephone survey. We had 143 patients with a mean age of 58 years (17–84), who underwent 149 hernia repairs using the Adhesix™ mesh. Ninety-two per cent (131 patients) were males. Only 10 patients (7%) had a postoperative pain for more than three years. In our series, neither age nor gender was predictive of postoperative pain. Only one patient had a hematoma lasting for more than one month and only four patients (2.8%) had a recurrence of their hernia within three years of their initial surgery. Ninety per cent of the patient expressed their satisfaction when surveyed three years after their surgery. In conclusion, the use of the self-adhering sutureless mesh for inguinal hernia repair has been proving itself as effective as the traditional mesh. Adhesix™ is associated with low chronic pain rate, recurrence rate, and postoperative complications rate, and can be safely adopted as the sole technique for inguinal hernia repair.
