Figure 3. A laparoscopic image of the right peritoneum adjacent to the inguinal ligament (white line). Imaging demonstrated no peritoneal defect in the location where an indirect (I) or direct (D) hernia would be identified. No ureter was seen on laparoscopic evaluation. This lack of defect demonstrates evidence of an extraperitoneal ureteroinguinal hernia.
