        Summary
        A modified technique for transposition of the internal obturator muscle was used to repair perineal hernia in 60 dogs. Herniorrhaphy was performed with a single continuous suture. Complications and long-term results are described. The most frequent complication was urinary incontinence (15%). We suggest that perineal hernia predisposes dogs to urinary incontinence after castration. The recurrence rate of perineal hernia was 3%. The owner's assessment of the surgical result was good in 90% and moderate in 10% of the cases.
