Perineal hernia occurs spontaneously in older male dogs after idiopathic weakening of the pelvic diaphragm A 14-year-old uncastrated male shih tzu dog with right-sided perineal swelling was referred to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital of Konkuk University. He had sign of perineal swelling for three years. Plain radiography documented the extent of rectal and colonic dilation in the herinal sac. During surgery, external anal sphincter muscle, coccygeus muscle and levator am muscle were weakened due to the three years of herniation. Internal obturator muscle transposition method was not enough for large defect, so mesh was applied to reduce the hernial sac. Internal obturator muscle transposition combined with using of polypropylene mesh was successfully performed in this dog.
