Abstract

T: 34-year-old woman, 16 weeks pregnant, with a personal history of cervical conization and previous cesarean section. Consultation for discomfort in the right groin region and signs of inflammation in the area, without a clear tumor. She refers that in the first pregnancy she presented the same symptoms. In the intergestational period she has not noticed these symptoms. On physical examination, the 16-week pregnant abdomen did not reveal clear signs of hernia, although there was slight pain on palpation. It was decided to request a pelvic ultrasound to rule out the presence of hernia or other soft tissue lesions in the groin region.
