Inguinal hernias with bladder involvement are rare but can cause serious issues like urinary obstruction. This report details a 65-year-old man with a history of right inguinal hernia repairs who presented with anuria and a right scrotal mass. Imaging studies revealed a hernia containing part of the bladder, leading to severe kidney swelling. These hernias mainly affect elderly men with risk factors such as obesity and previous repairs. Diagnosis is often made during surgery, but imaging techniques like CT and ultrasound can identify herniated bladder tissue and obstruction signs preoperatively. Accurate imaging is crucial for effective surgical intervention and preventing complications.
