摘要
A 56-year-old man presented with a delayed mesh infection 8 years following an elective laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (TEP) bilateral hernia repair. Sterile pus was drained percutaneously as a temporising measure prior to removal of the right-hand mesh; the left-sided mesh was adherent to the femoral vessels and minimally contaminated. Delayed mesh infection is a rare occurrence. This case is the fourth example and the longest following initial operation. Removal of the infected mesh is advocated.
