Keywords:
Hernia, Giant inguinoscrotal hernia, Giant hernia, Lichtenstein repair, mesh repairAbstract
The giant inguinal hernia has now become rare. Better hygienic conditions and better hernioplasty techniques, carried out with local anesthesia; usually encourage patients to undergo surgical treatment of the hernia soon after diagnosis. A case of giant inguinoscrotal hernia is being reported. Problems arise in management for both the patient and the surgeons because of the rarity of reported cases.
