• W3136103673 abstract "Purpose In the paediatric population, femoral hernia (FH) represents an uncommon and often misdiagnosed pathology. This study aimed to review our experience with the management of FH in children. Methods Medical records were retrospectively reviewed for all patients presenting to the paediatric surgical service in Ireland over a 15-year period (2004–2019), who were operated on for FH. Collected data included demographics, preoperative diagnosis, operative details, complications and follow-up. Results During the study period, n = 26 patients (n = 18 males) underwent FH repair, with a median age at surgery 6.9 years (range 3–16 years). During the same period n = 5693 patients underwent inguinal herniotomy, resulting in a FH to inguinal hernia (IH) ratio of 1:219 and a FH incidence of 0.45% of all groin hernias. The right side was affected in n = 18 (69.2%) cases and all cases were unilateral. A correct preoperative diagnosis was established in n = 16 (61.5%) cases, n = 8 (30.8%) cases were misdiagnosed as IH and the diagnosis was equivocal in 2 cases (7.7%). All operations were performed on an elective basis. In 3 patients from the misdiagnosed group, FH was found at first operation following negative groin exploration for IH. The remaining 5 patients underwent previous groin exploration for suspected IH and represented with clinical picture of groin hernia recurrence. All patients with a correct preoperative diagnosis underwent a FH repair via an inguinal or infra-inguinal approach. The content of the hernia sac was preperitoneal fat in n = 18 cases, lymph nodes in n = 2 cases, omentum in n = 1 and an empty sac in n = 1. There were no postoperative complications or recurrences. Median follow-up time was 6 weeks (range 0–2.5 years). Conclusion In the paediatric population, FH is a rare pathology and can be a challenging diagnosis. FH is commonly misdiagnosed as IH and may require more than one operation to correctly identify and treat. A high index of suspicion of FH should be maintained in patients who have a negative groin exploration for IH in the setting of a clear pre-operative diagnosis of a groin hernia. FH should also be considered in the differential diagnosis when an IH appears to recur." @default.
