RESUMEN
A 74-year-old male patient with prostate cancer under remission was admitted with left inguinoscrotal swelling. He underwent scrotal ultrasound demonstrating a giant in-guinoscrotal hernia. Contrast-enhanced computerized tomography of the abdomen and pelvis demonstrated a left pelvic kidney associated with severe hydroureteronephrosis secondary to a ureteral inguinoscrotal hernia. Upon exploration with left inguinal incision, a paraperitoneal ureteral in-guinoscrotal hernia and a hypertrophic left spermatic cord were observed. The elongated and tortuous left ureter, being pulled down to the scrotum by the hernia, was released from the herniating tissues fullfilling left hemiscrotum. The ureter was tapered followed by ureteroureterostomy. The accompanying left spermatic cord was excessively elongated and curled, necessitating cordectomy. The hernia was repaired with prolene mesh after removal of herniating peritoneal tissue. This is a rare case of a paraperitoneal ureteral inguinoscrotal hernia of the left pelvic kidney.
