We describe a case of attachment of an appendix vermiformis following an inguinal hernia plug repair according to Rutkow and Robbins. A 62-year-old man presented at our outpatient clinic with a progressive sensation of tightness in the right groin area, painful urge of miction and long-lasting nausea with abdominal discomfort. During an open groin exploration, the appendix was found attached to an intraperitoneally located plug. The appendix and plug were removed with an uneventful recovery. During follow-up, the patient was free of groin pain and miction had normalised. Surprisingly, his long-lasting nausea and abdominal discomfort had disappeared as well.
