Resumen
PATEL, RR; TU, S y PLASKETT, J. An inguinal hernia imposter. S. Afr. j. surg. [online]. 2021, vol.59, n.3, pp.130d-130e. ISSN 2078-5151. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2078-5151/2021/v59n3a3490.
This is a report of one of the many imposters of an irreducible inguinal hernia, a dermoid cyst. It is a rare entity that should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a groin lump when an atypical clinical presentation or groin examination occurs. Complete excision with histological evaluation remains the mainstay of surgical treatment.
