Abstract

Background: This study describes the concurrence of ventral hernia, cholelithiasis and uterine fibroid in females and ventral hernia, cholelithiasis and benign prostatic hypertrophy in males.

Methods: This is a prospective observational study of 100 patients of ventral hernia, cholelithiasis and uterine fibroid in females and ventral hernia, cholelithiasis and benign prostatic hypertrophy in males.

Results: In this study, ventral hernia, cholelithiasis and uterine fibroid in females and ventral hernia, cholelithiasis and benign prostatic hypertrophy in males were observed.

Conclusions: This is to specify the presence of more than one symptom in a patient may suggest presence of multiple diseases.
