Abstract

Careful analysis of 12 complicated cases of incarcerated femoral hernia gives clues toward the correct diagnosis of this problem. Knowledge of the symptoms can prevent dangerous delays in undertaking urgently-needed surgical repair. The unique anatomy involved requires careful clinical examination but surgery should not await x-ray studies.
