Total herniation of the urinary bladder into the scrotum, also known as scrotal cystocele, is a rare condition. It has mostly been described in elderly patients, who often have obstructive symptoms. We report a case of scrotal cystocele in a 2-year-old Nigerian child with no evidence of obstructive uropathy. The diagnosis was made at operation. The bladder was reduced into the abdominal cavity followed by a herniorrhaphy. The child has remained symptom-free 8 months after the procedure.
