%X BACKGROUND: Double direct and triple indirect type hernia in unilateral inguinal hernia is unique. Anomaly of pathway traversed by inferior epigastric artery is always of surgical importance. Meticulous exploration of the groin is mandatory for diagnosis of rare hernia.
METHODS: A 46 year old male presented with the right groin swelling. An inguinal hernia having two direct types separated by anamalous inferior epigastric artery and three indirect types of hernia were present. There was one bubonocele and two funicular types of indirect type of hernia present on the single cord. Anamalous inferior epigastric artery lying superficially at midpoint of inguinal canal was buttresed in the posterior wall to prevent its entrapping in mesh. Individual ligation of the indirect sacs and Lichtenstein repair was done. This is first kind of unique case report with the new type of hernia reported in the English literature after searching Pubmed, Medline, Google Scholar and Embase database. This new hernia, Double Pantaloon hernia, as a mark of respect and unity, is named after its State of origin, "Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh" so called as "Jammu Kashmir and Ladakh Hernia".
CONCLUSIONS: Double direct and triple indirect type hernia in a unilateral inguinal hernia is unique. Presence of multiple hernia sacs in the inguinal hernia is a risk for recurrence, if not detected. Inferior epigastric artery in inguinal canal may traverse an aberrant course.
