description We describe the case of a 70-year-old man with a long history of inguinal hernia who finally presented to the emergency department with a scrotal enterocutaneous fistula. This is a rare complication of an incarcerated/obstructed direct inguinal hernia. We performed exploratory laparotomy with resection of the perforated small bowel and end-to-end anastamosis of the ileal segment using the purse-string suture at the deep inguinal ring.
