title: Bartholin cyst presenting as inguinal hernia.
abstract: The clinical diagnosis of Bartholin cysts is usually very simple. This paper, however, reports a very unusual presentation, a Bartholin cyst originally thought to be an inguinal hernia. The history, anatomy, and clinical findings of Bartholin cysts are discussed, as well as a case history of this interesting presentation.
