Abstract De Garengeot hernia is a rare subtype of femoral hernia whereby the vermiform appendix is located within the hernial sac. Even rarer is the presence of appendicitis within the hernia sac. De Garengeot’s hernia is difficult to diagnose pre-operatively and can prove technically difficult at operation particularly with regards to mobilization of the caecum and appendix in order to perform appendicectomy. Laparoscopic, open, with and without mesh repair of de Garengeot hernia have all been described in the literature with varying degrees of success. We present a case of an 82 year old lady presenting with an acutely painful right sided groin lump. CT scan revealed the presence of de Garengeot hernia with acute appendicitis. We describe in text and photo format our approach to the hernia repair, appendicectomy and provide a short review of the literature with regards to the different operative approaches to such a patient.

Laparotomy Incision

The caecum and appendix are uncommon contents of femoral hernia (Duari hernia). Diagnosis is usually intraoperative. We report a rare case of obstructed right femoral hernia in a 65-year-old woman. She was admitted into the accident and emergency department because of sudden irreducibility of a previously reducible right groin swelling of 5 years duration. She had obstructive symptoms with an irreducible right groin mass clinically diagnosed as obstructed right femoral hernia. A combination of infra-inguinal transverse incision and a lower midline laparotomy incision was used. The intraoperative findings included the herniation of the caecum and appendix into the right femoral canal. Patient had an uneventful recovery. Duari hernia is uncommon. A high index of suspicion and an experiencedsurgeon, who can handle uncommon findings should be involved in the management of obstructed femoral hernias.

In Infants And Children

Inguinal abscess is uncommon in infants and children. Majority of cases in the infantile period is primary and they present as leg or groin swelling, limitation of limb movement and pain. The source of microorganism is from the haematogenous spread of normal flora of the skin due to immature immune system. Ultrasound is the investigation of choice which confirms the diagnosis and delineates the areas of collection. Antibiotic alone is insufficient in most cases and drainage is required. Delayed treatment and inadequate drainage carry a high risk of mortality and sequelae due to damage to the underlying joint. We present 2 cases of primary inguinal abscess in twin infants who presented at 1 month and 2 months of age correspondingly, in whom early diagnosis and management lead to quick recovery.

Soft-tissue sarcomas of the genitourinary tract account for only 1-2% of urological malignancies and 2.1% of soft-tissue sarcomas in general. A 69-year-old male complained of a 4 month history of a painless right groin swelling during routine urological review for prostate cancer follow-up. Clinical examination revealed a non-tender, firm right inguinoscrotal mass. There was no discernible cough impulse. Computed tomography of abdomen and pelvis showed a non-obstructed right inguinal hernia. During elective hernia repair a solid mass involving the spermatic cord and extending into the proximal scrotum was seen. The mass was widely resected and a right orchidectomy was performed. Pathology revealed a paratesticular sarcoma. He proceeded to receive adjuvant radiotherapy. Only around 110 cases of leiomyosarcoma of the spermatic cord have been described in the literature. They commonly present as painless swellings in the groin. The majority of diagnoses are made on histology.
