We describe one case of intra-scrotal hernia of the right ureter. The anomaly was recognized on a pre-operatory urogram. It was an extra-peritoneal ureteral hernia. There are two types of ureteral hernia: the para-peritoneal hernia with a peritoneal sac; the extra-peritoneal type with only a fatty hernia. The mecanism of the latter illustrated by our case is a prolapse of the retro-peritoneal fat. It is not possible to practice an urogram before the cure of every inguinal hernia, so the prevention in this rare situation of the damage of ureter is to be cautious in the resection of huge lipomas and sliding fat when operating on inguinal hernias.

Background And Objective: Evidence regarding perioperative results and long-term functional outcomes of robotic-assisted kidney transplantation (RAKT) is limited. We evaluated perioperative surgical results and long-term functional outcomes of RAKT in patients receiving kidney transplants from living donors.
Methods: This retrospective analysis is based on a prospective multicenter cohort study conducted from July 2015 to October 2023 across ten European centers.

Different abdominal organs can herniate into the inguinal canal, including the small bowel, colon, appendix, ovaries, and, less commonly, the urinary bladder and fallopian tubes. Herniation of the ureter within an inguinal hernia is a very rare occurrence. To the best of our knowledge, less than 150 cases have been reported in the literature, including only 15 pediatric cases.

Article Synopsis
- This study presents a series of 16 cases using single-port robotic surgery to repair ureteroenteric anastomosis stricture (UES), marking the first documented success with this technique.
- A retrospective review was conducted on patients who underwent this procedure after radical cystectomy from September 2020 to July 2024, assessing demographics and surgical outcomes.
- Results showed that surgeries were accomplished with minimal complications, an average operation time of 265 minutes, and a low average hospital stay of 4.9 days, indicating that this technique is both safe and effective, though further research is recommended.
A Rare Occurrence of Bilateral Ureteral Presence Within Inguinal Hernias in a Military Veteran: A Case Report.

Surgery, Edward Via College of Osteopathic Medicine, Blacksburg, USA.
Anatomical disruption of the ureter is a rare phenomenon that alters the positioning of the ureter within the abdominal or pelvic cavity. It is even rarer for ureteral presence to be located within inguinal hernias, especially bilaterally. We explore a case of a 76-year-old male with bilateral inguinal hernias, each containing a portion of the ureter from its respective kidney.

This case report describes the diagnosis, management and the short- and long-term outcomes of a dog with paraprostatic cysts and associated perineal herniation. A 9-year-old male entire Bearded Collie was referred for a caudal abdominal mass and right perineal hernia noted on routine examination. Computed Tomography (CT) imaging of the abdomen demonstrated a large bilobed fluid filled structure adjacent to the prostate, extending into the peritoneal cavity and the right perineal space, causing perineal herniation and partial obstruction of the right ureter.
