腹股沟疝是一种常见的疾病，可能包含小肠或大肠，网膜或其他组织。圆韧带平滑肌瘤是一种罕见的疾病，主要发生在绝经前的妇女。腹部、腹股沟和外阴部位均有描述。罕见的情况下，平滑肌瘤类似于嵌顿腹股沟疝的报告。我们描述了一个罕见的情况下，平滑肌瘤的圆韧带在一个年轻的白人女性模仿嵌顿腹股沟疝。治疗是外科手术，我们能够成功地删除圆韧带平滑肌瘤。圆韧带平滑肌瘤是一种良性肿瘤。外科医生在鉴别诊断类似腹股沟疝的肿块时应考虑到这种情况。
Inguinal hernia is a common condition and may contain small or large bowel, omentum or other tissues. Leiomyomas of a round ligament are a rare condition occurring predominantly in premenopausal women. Abdominal, inguinal and vulvar locations have been described. Rare situations have been reported in which leiomyomas resemble to an incarcerated inguinal hernia. We describe a rare case of a leiomyoma of a round ligament in a young Caucasian female mimicking an incarcerated inguinal hernia. The treatment was surgical and we were able to remove the leiomyoma of the round ligament successfully. Leiomyoma of the round ligament is a benign tumor. Surgeons should take into consideration this condition in terms of differential diagnosis of masses that mimic an inguinal hernia.
