    Preoperative diagnosis of incarcerated hernia was incorrect in 19 patients. Various conditions, including inflammation, tumors, and cysts, mimicked hernias, highlighting the need for advanced imaging and prompt surgical evaluation.

    Area of Science:

    • General Surgery
    • Diagnostic Imaging

    Context:

    • Preoperative diagnosis of incarcerated hernia is common.
    • Misdiagnosis can lead to delayed or inappropriate treatment.

    Purpose:

    • To analyze cases where incarcerated hernia was misdiagnosed.
    • To identify conditions that mimic incarcerated hernias.
    • To recommend improved diagnostic strategies.

    Summary:

    • 19 patients with a preoperative diagnosis of incarcerated hernia were found to have other conditions during surgery.
    • These included inflammation (appendicitis, abscesses), tumors, cysts, hydrocele, and a ruptured aortic aneurysm.
    • Ultrasonography and timely surgery are recommended for uncertain cases.

    Impact:
