We report the case of a 71-year-old male with palpable and painful left inguinal mass who underwent open hernioplasty. During the operation, ~700 ml of ascitic fluid and multiple nodules on the peritoneum were observed upon incision of the hernia sac. Culture and pathological examination confirmed a diagnosis of peritoneal tuberculosis (TB). Abdominal TB is rarely presented as a hernia. We review ten cases of abdominal TB associated with abdominal hernias and discuss surgical techniques and further management options.
我们报告一例71岁男性患者,其左侧腹股沟可触及肿物且伴有疼痛,接受了开放式疝修补术。手术过程中,切开疝囊时发现约700毫升腹水以及腹膜上的多个结节。培养及病理检查确诊为腹膜结核。腹部结核很少表现为疝。我们回顾了10例与腹部疝相关的腹部结核病例,并讨论了手术技巧及进一步的处理方案。
