Man has hernia bigger than a football removed from his scrotum after 12 years
Medics reported the swelling was 30cm in length – longer than a football, which is typically 23cm in diameter.
The man had the growth for more than 12 years but had previously refused surgery to treat it. He finally went for treatment after the growth significantly affected his quality of life causing him difficulties walking and having sex, the man was placed under a general anaesthetic and the operation to remove the huge swelling went smoothly. After six months, doctors were pleased to see the hernia had not returned.
