Abstract We present a case of Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae spondylodiscitis in an otherwise healthy man, occurring one year after exposure. The patient was cured after 6-weeks treatment with amoxicillin followed by ciprofloxacin without surgery. E. rhusiopathiae can cause severe osteoarticular infections with a delayed presentation following the exposure to the pathogen.

The presentation of an incarcerated appendix within a femoral hernia accounts for 0.5-3.3% of all femoral hernias. It is rarely apparent diagnostically prior to surgery. A 48-year-old female had a delayed presentation with a 3-day history of an irreducible right inguinal swelling. Imaging failed to elucidate an incarcerated appendix, which was found at operation. The patient made a full recovery. The rarity and presentation of this condition is discussed. On literature review it typically is not suspected at operation due to its rarity and the difficulty of interpreting it on examination and imaging.
