This is a report of a case who was admitted and operated on for a strangulated femoral hernia. The hernia sac contained a gangrenous appendix, which was excised and the hernia was repaired with sutures without complication. De Garengeot's hernia, although very rare, should be included in the differential diagnosis of cases with strangulated hernia and should receive the optimal treatment.

Background Ascending testis (AT) is one of the rare but serious complication that may occurs following inguinal hernia/hydrocele repair. We aimed to review our more than 7 years’ experience and discuss the possible mechanism through which the AT possibly occurs following inguinal hernia/hydrocele repair. Materials and Methods A retrospective analysis of 7,212 boys who had undergone inguinal her...

Amyand hernia is an extremely rare type of inguinal where the vermiform appendix resides within hernial sac. We presented a case 7-day-old male patient who to ER with irreducible right congenital for 6 hours. The underwent surgical correction thick, elongated, and inflamed was identified sac, ligated excised be sent histopathological evaluation. hernia, as well acute appendicitis in neonates, c...

Inguinal hernia is a common disease with intestine or omentum majus herniating into hernia sac. Bladder herniation is a special type of inguinal hernia which often happens in old male with very low incidence. Here we report a rare case of an inguinal bladder hernia, which was diagnosed by 18F-FDG PET-CT during detection of lung carcinoma.

We present a case of an unsual type of obstructed indirect inguinal hernia with impending strangulation. The operative findings revealed a sliding Maydl's hernia with an ischemic inner ileal loop and an adherent inflamed appendix. This case highlights the importance of intraoperative examination of the intra-abdominal bowel loops proximal to the hernia sac of an incarcerated, obstructed, or str...

Ovarian hernias are extremely rare. The prevalence of ovaries and fallopian tubes in operable inguinal hernias is only about 2.9%. We report here an unusual case of an ovary in a hernia sac in an adult female. She presented with symptoms and signs of an incarcerated left inguinal hernia. The left ovary contained a haemorrhagic cyst and, along with the left fallopian tube and broad ligament, the...

Paraesophageal (type II) hiatus hernia represents a dis-• tinct anatomic and clinic entity requiring a unique therapeutic strategy, and is differentiated from the more common type I (sliding) hiatus hernia. All symptomatic patients, in the absence of prohibitive • operative risk, should undergo elective repair to prevent life-threatening complications, such as obstruction, strangulation , perfo...

Inguinal hernia repair is commonplace in general surgery practice and an estimated 700 000 are performed each year in the USA. The presence of the vermiform appendix contained in the hernia sac, or an Amyand's hernia, is exceedingly rare, occurring in 1% of inguinal hernia patients. We report the intra-operative findings of a standard inguinal hernia repair and discuss the management of the fou...

A hernia is a protrusion of abdominal content (preperitoneal fat, omentum or abdominal organs) through an abdominal wall defect. Anatomically the most important features of a hernia are the hernial orifice and the hernia (peritoneal) sac, if present. The hernial orifice is represented by the primary defect in the aponeurotic layer of the abdomen, and the hernial sac by the bulging peritoneum. T...

BACKGROUND The term Amyand's hernia refers to a rare clinical situation characterized by the presence of a normal or inflammed appendix within the sac of an inguinal hernia. The situation may be asymptomatic or may present as an incarcerated hernia in case of strangulation or acute appendicitis occurring inside the hernia sac. DESCRIPTION OF THE CASE We present the case of a right Amyand's he...
