This article presents a 39-year-old male with a five-year history of a giant left inguinal hernia that was treated with left inguinal hernia repair with mesh, orchiectomy, complicated scrotoplasty, intraoperative ultrasound and aspiration of 3.9\u00a0L of fluid from the hernia sac. Surgical repair of giant inguinal hernias can be challenging and is associated with a variety of complications. Various modalities have been described to assist in hernia reduction including debulking, or, as in this case, aspiration of the hernia sac and a preperitoneal incision. Although the Lichtenstein tension free repair is commonly used, no standard approach has been accepted.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjab340","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,7,26]],"date-time":"2021-07-26T19:11:40Z","timestamp":1627326700000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Giant sliding inguinal hernia requiring intraoperative aspiration of fluid: a case report and literature review"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2021","author":[{"given":"Tyler","family":"Davis","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"General Surgery, University of Texas at Tyler, Tyler 75708, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mica","family":"Vivens","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"General Surgery, University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, Galveston, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3712-4280","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lutfi","family":"Barghuthi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"General Surgery, University of Texas at Tyler, Tyler 75708, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Hishaam","family":"Ismael","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"General Surgery, University of Texas at Tyler, Tyler 75708, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021082701501856600_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"868","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2014.10.042","article-title":"Giant inguinal hernia: report of a case and reviews of surgical techniques","volume":"5","author":"Trakarnsagna","year":"2014","journal-title":"Int J Surg Case Rep."},{"key":"2021082701501856600_ref2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"560","DOI":"10.9738\/INTSURG-D-13-00083.1","article-title":"Giant inguinoscrotal hernia--report of a rare case with literature review","volume":"99","author":"Karthikeyan","year":"2014","journal-title":"Int Surg."},{"key":"2021082701501856600_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjx221","article-title":"Repair of giant inguinoscrotal hernia with loss of domain","volume":"2017","author":"Qaja","year":"2017","journal-title":"J Surg Case Rep"},{"key":"2021082701501856600_ref4","article-title":"Large sliding inguino-scrotal hernia of the urinary bladder: a case report and literature review","volume":"97","author":"Wang","year":"2018","journal-title":"Medicine (Baltimore)."},{"key":"2021082701501856600_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"32","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2010.11.005","article-title":"Simple repair of a giant inguinoscrotal hernia","volume":"2","author":"Coetzee","year":"2011","journal-title":"Int J Surg Case Rep."},{"key":"2021082701501856600_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"51","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2016.05.039","article-title":"Treatment of a half century year old giant inguinoscrotal hernia.
