Özet

An inguinal hernia containing an ovary, fallopian tube, and uterus is an extremely rare occurrence in a woman of reproductive age. We herein report a case of a uterine horn from a bicornuate uterus, left ovarian ligament, and partially left fallopian tube within the left inguinal sac and canal diagnosed through laparoscopy in a 23-year-old female who is infertile.
