Abstract

INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Bilateral concomitant inguinal and femoral hernias are an uncommon presentation clinically. If not managed in time, femoral hernias may be associated with incarceration or even strangulation. CASE PRESENTATION: We report the case of a 75-year-old male who presented with bilateral inguinal and femoral swellings which were diagnosed clinically and by ultrasound scan as uncomplicated inguinal and femoral hernias. Surgical management was done using the inguinal approach. His postoperative period was uneventful and was discharged without any complaint on the 4th post-operative day. CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Bilateral concomitant inguinal and femoral hernias are a rare presentation. Surgery was done as the best option to prevent complications. The literature suggests that it remains the gold standard of management in groin hernias in adults. CONCLUSION: We present a rare condition in a 75-year-old male with uncomplicated bilateral concomitant inguinal and femoral hernias.
