Amyand; Appendix; HerniaAbstract
Amyand’s hernia is characterized by the presence of the vermiform appendix within the hernial sac of na inguinal hernia, being a rare condition, in which the diagnosis is often made intraoperatively due to its similar clinical presentation with inguinal hernias. Amyand’s hernia treatment usually involves a surgical approach to repair the hernia and it may be necessary to perform na appendectomy depending on the condition of the appendix. Despite being a rare condition, its possible complications include delicate situations such as perforation of the appendix and peritonitis.
