[Torsion of uterine fibroma associated with incarcerated inguinal hernia in pregnancy. Case report].
The incidence of inguinal hernias in pregnancy is 1:1000 about. Much more frequent are uterine leiomyomas, reported in 0.5-2.6% cases. We describe a rare case of a 31 old woman at the 20th week of pregnancy affected with a torsion of uterine leiomyoma associated with right inguinal incarcerated hernia, operated urgently (myomectomy and Bassini inguinal plastic).
