Obturator hernia is a rare surgical condition, with about 800 cases being reported in the literature. It can cause significant morbidity and mortality, especially in the elderly age group. Delayed treatment is associated with high rates of strangulation (25-100 %). The mainstay of management for obturator hernia has been surgical. Non-operative management can lead to significant morbidity and mortality, but may be an option in patients who decline surgery, as described in our case.
闭孔疝是一种罕见的外科疾病，文献中约有 800 例报道。它可导致严重的发病率和死亡率，尤其是在老年人群中。延迟治疗与绞窄的发生率高（25-100%）有关。闭孔疝的主要治疗方法是手术。非手术治疗可能导致严重的发病率和死亡率，但对于拒绝手术的患者，如我们的病例中所述，可能是一种选择。
