Herniorrhaphy is a common surgery worldwide. Common complications include hemorrhage, infection, chronic pain, and recurrence. Ureteric injury from herniorrhaphy is unusual. We present a case of ureteric injury complicating an inguinal herniorrhaphy for a huge right inguino-scrotal hernia. Patient had primary uretero-neocystostomy but died from septicemia in the postoperative period.

Spontaneous herniation of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) into the external auditory canal (EAC) is a rare occurrence. Typically, TMJ herniations are small and involve a focal defect in the EAC. In this report, we present an unusual case of extensive TMJ herniation measuring 17 mm, originating from a bony defect in the EAC.

Inguinal hernias are commonly encountered and are primarily managed by surgeons; however, it is unusual for retroperitoneal structures, such as the ureter, to herniate into it. More importantly, hernias containing ureters are not usually identified preoperatively unless specific imaging was ordered prior, as they are generally asymptomatic. This poses a risk to the patient as unidentified structures can be mistakenly injured during the surgery.

This case report discusses the uncommon occurrence of bilateral inguinal hernias masking cryptorchidism in a 47-year-old male, emphasizing the complexities and nuances of diagnosing and managing undescended testes in adults. Cryptorchidism is most often identified and treated during infancy; however, its rare adult manifestation presents significant diagnostic challenges and is fraught with serious implications for fertility and malignancy if left untreated. The subject presented with long-standing bilateral groin discomfort and was initially evaluated using clinical examination and CT imaging, which diagnosed bilateral inguinal hernias but did not initially detect cryptorchidism.

A woman in her 60s presented to the emergency department with excruciating, deep left shoulder pain and was found to have a right-sided Morgagni hernia, a rare type of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH). She did not have chest pain, palpitations, shortness of breath, cough, abdominal pain, constipation, diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting or other symptoms classically associated with CDHs in adults. Laparoscopic robotic-assisted repair with mesh placement was performed, and the patient's recovery was uncomplicated, with no recurrence of shoulder pain.
