Background: The canal of Nuck is a fold of peritoneum
 that invaginates into the inguinal canal and closes at
 or just before birth. If the canal of Nuck remains open in
 female infants, herniation of the uterus, adnexa and/or
 bowel loops may arise through the inguinal canal into
 the labia majora.
 Case Report: The present case is a 12-week-old female
 infant with complaints of left groin swelling and discomfort.
 Ultrasonographic examination revealed a left
 inguinal hernia containing both adnexa (ovaries and fallopian
 tubes), uterus and small bowel loops with fluid.
 Conclusion: A hernia containing ovary and uterus
 should be considered as a possible cause in a female infant
 with a groin mass. Ultrasonography of the inguinal
 mass lesions should be performed routinely in a female
 infant for accurate diagnosis.
