Abstrakt:	Introduction and Importance: Reduction en-masse is an extremely rare condition that usually develops in prolonged hernias. Spontaneous or iatrogenic reduction of this type of hernia may lead to disastrous consequences such as obstruction, gangrene, or peritonitis. According to the reports so far, surgical management is the only choice for this condition. Presentation of Case: In this paper, we report a 48-year-old man who presented with vague abdominal pain and a history of inguinal hernia for years and had reduced his hernia five days earlier. Computed tomography (CT) and ultrasonography confirmed the diagnosis, and the patient was taken to the operating room to relieve the bowel loop utilizing laparoscopy. Conclusion: Laparoscopic relief could be an effective tool in diagnosis and surgery of reduction en-masse. Transabdominal preperitoneal repair is the best choice due to its capability to explore the intraabdominal organs and its low risk of recurrence. (Copyright © 2021. Published by Elsevier Ltd.)
