Abstract

This case involved a 36-year-old adult male who presented with an unusual inguinal hernia in which the uterus and fallopian tubes were identified as contents of the inguinal hernia sac. These findings reflected a rare autosomal recessive developmental syndrome known as PMDS (persistent Mí¼llerian duct syndrome). The diagnosis was established and confirmed via radiological-mainly MRI-investigation.
