Giant inguinal hernia, a case series
Giant inguinal hernias require individualized surgical planning. Careful reduction, sac excision, and reinforcement with mesh can achieve good outcomes. Ligation of the inferior epigastric artery may aid reduction in specific cases. A better understanding of socioclinical factors leading to delayed presentation may improve earlier detection and intervention.
