Simultaneous strangulation of inguinal and femoral hernias in a male patient: A case report

We are presenting a case of Simultaneous strangulation of inguinal and femoral hernia's in a male patient, probably the first case in world literature, which was operated under local anaesthesia with a mesh and mesh plug repair after release of strangulations in both hernias. General and spinal anaesthesias were not recommended due to the poor condition of his lungs and post spinal fracture ankylosis.
