33 Inguinal és femoral hernia Lateral inquinal, indirect Medial inquinal, direct Femoral 1. Invaginate loose scrotal skin with your index finger. 2. Follow the spermatic cord upward to above the inquinal ligament, and find the opening of the external inquinal ring. 3. If possible, gently follow the inguinal canal laterally. 4. Ask the patient to strain down or cough. 5. Note any palpable herniating mass as it touches your finger. Palpate the anterior thigh in the region of the femoral canal.. If the findings suggest a hernia, try to reduce it by sustained pressure with your finger. If the mass is tender or the patient reports nausea and vomiting, you have to finish this maneuver. Incarcerated hernia: when its contents can not be returned to the abdominal cavity. Strangulated hernia:when the blood supply is compromised (tenderness, nausea, vomiting) Bates B: A guide to physical examination. Fifth edition.
