Perineal hernia (PH) is the protrusion into the perineum of intraperitoneal or extraperitoneal contents through a congenital or acquired defect of the pelvic diaphragm [1]. They are classified as primary and secondary (postoperative) [2]. Primary PH can be congenital or acquired. PH are very rare conditions and even more so within paediatric population. The treatment of PH is surgical [3,4]. Many approaches and techniques of treatment were described in the literature. Among the cases described in the literature a few cases of children has been reported. In this report, we present a case of PH in a male child first described in Cote d’Ivoire.
