Abstract

Amyand’s hernia is a rare condition consisting of the presence of the vermiform appendix within the hernia sac in the inguinal region. Despite not being frequent, or rarely reported, it deserves attention for proper care. Its involvement is more frequent in men of any age group and often goes unrecorded because the content of the hernial sac is reduced even before its identification.
