Chronic Dialysis Dependent Renal Failure Resulting from a Massive Bladder Containing Inguinal Hernia

الملخص EN

Bladder involvement in inguinal hernia is relatively rare, 1–4%, although the incidence is increased to 10% with advancing age or obesity.

There are several previously reported cases presenting with obstructive uropathy and renal failure, but all reversed with urinary diversion and hernia repair.

We believe this to be the first reported case of bladder hernia leading to dialysis dependent chronic renal failure.
