Scrotal Cystocele Managed With Trans-scrotal Neocystostomy Tube

Abstract

Inguinal herniation of the bladder is relatively common, reported in as many as 4% of inguinal hernias. In the majority of those cases, it is a sliding hernia that is noted at time of herniorrhaphy. Complete herniation of the bladder or “scrotal cystocele” is very rare and normally managed with herniorrhaphy. This case report presents a case of massive inguinal scrotal herniation of the urinary bladder successfully managed with trans-scrotal drainage via neocystostomy tube.
