In this case, a patient previously diagnosed with spermatic cord hydrocele was found by contrast-enhanced computed tomography to have an incarcerated right inguinal hernia containing bowel and adipose tissue.
Manual reduction of the incarcerated inguinal hernia was successful and subsequent imaging confirmed resolution.
The case supports reassessing an initial diagnosis and using multiple imaging approaches to differentiate overlapping groin lesions when symptoms progress.
Elective laparoscopic hernia repair using the transabdominal preperitoneal approach identified a right external inguinal hernia and a multilocular hydrocele adjacent to the hernia orifice.
