    Abstract:
    The authors report 5 cases of bladder herniation through inguinal ring. All the patients were males aged between 52 and 72 years with a mean of 63 years. The clinic symptoms were non specific. In four cases the diagnosis was made by IVP. In the fifth case the bladder herniation was discovered after an incidental opening of the bladder during a right inguinal hernia repair. Four patients were operated on for replacement of the bladder and repair of the hernial ring; the procedure followed was Mac Vay technique in two cases, Shouldice in one case and placement of a Mersuture prosthesis in another case. The fifth patient was operated on because of major constraint related to his general conditions. Results was quite satisfactory in all operated cases with a mean control of 24 months.
