Abstract

Inguinal hernia is extremely rare in female newborns, and the hernia sac may sometimes involve intestinal structures and ovaries. Early diagnosis of a possible ovarian torsion is essential because potential amenable benefits can be achieved with surgery. Two new- borns with herniation of the ovaries into the inguinal hernia sac are reported in this article. Ovarian torsion was diagnosed by color Doppler ultrasonography in one of the newborns, wheras there were no ultrasonographic signs of torsion in the other case. The ultrasonographic and color Doppler ultrasonographic findings in both cases and the role of these modalities in the differential diagnosis of ovarian torsion are discussed.

Özet

Kız çocuklarda yenidoğan döneminde inguinal herniler, oldukça nadir görülmekte olup, herni kesesi içerisinde intestinal yapılar ve overler bulunabilir. Bu organlardaki olası bir over torsiyonunun erken tanısı, cerrahi ile düzeltilebilir sonuçlar elde edilmesi nedeniyle oldukça önem kazanmaktadır. Bu yazıda, overlerin inguinal kanal içerisine herniye olduğu iki yenidoğan olgu sunulmuştur. Bir olguda over torsiyonu renkli Doppler ultrasonografi ile saptanırken, diğer olguda Doppler ultrasonografi ile overde torsiyon bulgusuna rastlanmadı. Her iki olguda, ultrasonografi ve renkli Doppler ultrasonografi bulguları ile bu yöntemlerin torsiyon ayırımındaki yerleri tartışıldı.
