Abstract EN

Ureteric sciatic hernias are extremely rare.

Here we report a case of a 78-year-old woman presented with colicky left abdominal pain.

Computed tomography revealed a ureteric sciatic hernia, and drip infusion pyelography revealed dilated left ureter with herniation of the ureter into the sciatic foramen.

The hernia was successfully repaired laparoscopically.

We have described the diagnosis and management of the patient, followed by a review of the literature on sciatic hernias.
