The gallbladder as content in the case of abdominal hernias has only been reported in a few cases in the current literature. Cholecyst has only been described in the content of an inguinofemoral hernia in one case to date.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Case presentation<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A 73-year-old female patient was admitted to the Emergency Department due to complaints in the right inguinal area, which had started 1\u00a0day earlier. The patient complained of cramp-like abdominal pain and nausea. Physical examination confirmed an apple-sized, irreducible hernia in the right inguinal region. Abdominal ultrasound confirmed an oedematous intestinal loop in a 70-mm-long hernial sac, with no circulation detected. Abdominal X-ray showed no signs of passage disorder. White blood cell count and C-reactive protein level were elevated, and hepatic enzymes were normal in the laboratory findings. Exploration was performed via an inguinal incision on the right side, an uncertain cystic structure was found in the hernial sac, and several small abnormal masses were palpated there. The abdominal cavity was explored from the middle midline laparotomy. During the exploration, the content of the hernial sac was found to be the fundus of the significantly ptotic, large gallbladder. Cholecystectomy and Bassini\u2019s repair of the inguinal hernia were performed safely.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Following a review of the literature, it can be concluded that the finding of incarcerated gallbladder in the content of an inguinal hernia is a rare finding. No other similar emergency case and successful surgical intervention have been reported before.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12876-020-01569-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,14]],"date-time":"2020-12-14T13:04:06Z","timestamp":1607951046000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":9,"title":["Incarcerated gallbladder in inguinal hernia: a case report and literature review"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"20","author":[{"suffix":"Jr.","given":"J\u00e1nos","family":"Tajti","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J\u00f3zsef","family":"Pieler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Szabolcs","family":"\u00c1brah\u00e1m","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zsolt","family":"Simonka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Attila","family":"Paszt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7155-2978","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Gy\u00f6rgy","family":"L\u00e1z\u00e1r","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"1569_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/978-1-4419-8574-3","volume-title":"Abdominal wall hernias: principles and management","author":"R Bendavid","year":"2001","unstructured":"Bendavid R, Abrahamson J, Arregui ME, Flament JB, Phillips EH.
