An 18-year-old, male collegiate basketball athlete complained of right testicular pain following basketball activities. The patient’s imaging denoted edema within the pubis at the insertion of the adductor longus tendon and rectus sheath aponeurosis consistent with inguinal disruption. The patient underwent conservative rehabilitation and attempted to return to participation with increased pain. Subsequently, the patient underwent surgery. Following surgical intervention, the patient underwent 6 weeks of rehabilitation with basketball-specific considerations. On conclusion, the patient was pain free and returned to activity. This case is unique due to the insidious onset, sport in which the patient participated, and failed conservative management.
