The etio-pathogenesis,diagnosis and differential diagnosis of inguinal extrasaccular hernia in infants
【Abstract】 Objective To study the etiopathogenisis, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of inguinal extrasaccular hernia in infants.Methods 13cases of inguinal extrasaccular hernia out of 290 cases of inguinal hernia in our hospital were investigated with referating the leterture, and focused the attention on its etidogy, pathogenisis and diagnosis,differential diagnosis.Results To reveal that the incidence of inguinal extrasaccular heruia in femal infants was much more than that in male infants, and the sliding substance of extrasaccular hernia were ovary and fallopian tube in femal infants and cecum,appendix and sigmoid in male infants.and the ligmenta suspersorium orarii and mesentery of cecum and sigmoid moved more easily. Its etiopathogenesis had relation to that the ovary and fallopian tube approached the inguinal inner circle and the mesentery of cecum and sigmoid moved more easily. The clinical features of inguinal extrasaccular hernia were similar to other inguinal oblique hernia, so that misdiagnosis was easily made.Conclusion Inguinal extrasaccular hernias in infants were due to congenital dysplasia of inguinal inner cirele and movable organs in abdominal cavity slided from abdominal cavity. Its clinical features were similar to general inguinal oblique hernia and that must careful be distinguished. Consideration for its etiopathogenesis can help to make correct diagnosis.
