Özet
Objective: To evaluate the associated factors of inguinoscrotal bladder hernia (ISBH), which was detected on F-18-fluorodeoxyglu-cose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F-18-FDG PET/CT) scans. Study Design: An observational study. Place and Duration of Study: Department of Nuclear Medicine, Meram Faculty of Medicine, Necmettin Erbakan University, Konya, Turkey, from August 2010 to April 2021. Methodology: In this study, 60 cases were subclassified in three age-matched groups; 15 patients diagnosed with ISBH in Group Ia, 15 cases with inguinoscrotal herniation (ISH) of bowel in Group Ib, and 30 patients without ISH in Group II. In the reconstructed PET/CT images, the prostate volume (PV), abdominal subcutaneous fat (SFV), and visceral fat (VFV) volumes were measured, and body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Results: There was a statistically significant relationship between subgroups of Group I in the measurements of BMI, PV, SFV, and VFV, which were higher in Group Ia than Group Ib. The lower SFV/VFV value in Group Ib was considered as the most important risk factor in developing ISH of the bowel. A significant statistical difference was found between Group I and II in terms of PV, VFV, and SFV/VFV parameters. Conclusions: This study reiterated the impact of PV and the parameters representing abdominal fat distribution on ISBH development. PET/CT scan provided valuable information regarding both the hernia contents and the associated factors in which the higher PV had a significant association for the development of ISBH as well as lower SFV/VFV that was more prominent in ISH with bowel.
