Popis: The inguinal hernia, malformations caused by persistence of peritonea-vaginal duct, is frequent in children. It is a benign affection as long as it is not strangled. During our five-year-retrospective study, we have found 32 cases (30 boys and 2 girls) of strangled inguinal hernia. There are 78,12% of cases under five years old. In 54%, the hernia was on the right side. Malnutrition and inguinoscrotal hernia are very exposed to strangulation. We observed obstruction syndrome in 81,25% of cases. We have to deplore one case of scrotal fistulae by intestinal necrosis and two cases of testicle necrosis. For all of our patients, the peritonea-vaginal duct was closed with ligature, associated with pre-funicular parietal refection. One case of recurrence is found in postoperative time.
