A case of femoral hernia following repair of an inguinal hernia with the Shouldice method is presented. The authors discuss the pathogenesis, suggest the use of ultrasound for a precise preoperative diagnosis, and propose the "plug" technique of Lichtenstein as the method of choice for the repair. This method offers a minimally invasive approach, without disturbing the previous inguinal repair and it is very simple to perform.

D006550 Hernia, Femoral A groin hernia occurring inferior to the inguinal ligament and medial to the FEMORAL VEIN and FEMORAL ARTERY. The femoral hernia sac has a small neck but may enlarge considerably when it enters the subcutaneous tissue of the thigh. It is caused by defects in the ABDOMINAL WALL.

D006552 Hernia, Inguinal An abdominal hernia with an external bulge in the GROIN region. It can be classified by the location of herniation. Indirect inguinal hernias occur through the internal inguinal ring. Direct inguinal hernias occur through defects in the ABDOMINAL WALL (transversalis fascia) in Hesselbach's triangle. The former type is commonly seen in children and young adults; the latter in adults.
