Özet

It is extremely uncommon for bladder carcinoma to manifest in an inguinal hernia. Only 1-3% of inguinal hernias involve the bladder, and very few of these hernias are associated with bladder carcinoma. Furthermore, the tumour is removed, and the hernia is repaired as part of the treatment. We present the case of an 89-year-old man who came to our clinic complaining of haematuria and was diagnosed with an inguinal bladder hernia filled with tumours.
