A rare complication after laparascopic inguinal hernia repair: Testicular ischemia, ultrasonography and color Doppler findings
Özet
Testicular ischemia is a rare complication of laparoscopic inguinal hernia reparation. We present a case who had had laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair 6 months ago and reffered us with prostatisme symptoms and testicular atrophy. We demonstrate the findings on gray-scale and color Doppler sonography with a man with testicular ischemia after hernia repair. No intratesticular blood flow was identified by color doppler sonography and as well as gray-scale demonstrating well-defined region of decreased echogenicity. Gray-scale sonography accompanied with color Doppler sonography has valuable role in evaulating the most dreaded complications of inguinal hernia repair, testicular ischemia.
