Article Synopsis
- A rare case of a 45-year-old Ethiopian woman presented with a long-standing left inguinal hernia that included her left ovary and fallopian tube, discovered during elective surgery after imaging confirmed the hernia's presence.

- The case stresses the need for healthcare providers to be vigilant and consider the possibility of female genital involvement in inguinal hernias to facilitate timely and effective treatment.
