Abstract Background Amyand’s hernia was an unusual condition defined by the presence of an appendix located in the inguinal hernia sac. Its prevalence was 1% of all inguinal hernia in children. The clinical manifestation of Amyand’s hernia was depending on hernia’s stage, an incarcerated hernia will present with an inguinal mass following by pain and motility disorder. It could lead to abdominal distention in the late stage. The common location of Amyand’s hernia was on the right side, the left side was uncommon. Early feeding on infants could provoke symptoms of bowel obstruction (SBO). More than 76% of infants in Java, Indonesia was given banana as solid food in infants before six months old. There is a correlation between the early banana diet and SBO. Amyand’s hernia could present as morbidity of early banana diet. Case presentation We describe a case of two months old infant present with an incarcerated left inguinal hernia and history of early banana diet that performed herniotomy procedure. During the operation, we found left-side incarcerated Amyand’s hernia with appendicitis, excoriation caecum, and sticky banana mass. Conclusion This case suggest the possibility of early feeding of banana diet may provoke incarceration of an inguinal hernia and if the incarcerated hernia content contains the appendix, then an Amyand's hernia.

Introduction: Amyand’s hernia is an extremely rare and atypical hernia that is difficult to diagnose clinically characterized by the herniation of the appendix into the inguinal sac. The aim of this report is to describe a case of Amyand’s hernia and highlights the importance of early CT scanning in reaching the exact and early diagnosis of Amyand’s hernia. Case report: We present a rare case of a 69-year-old female patient with a history of intermittent pain in the right inguinal region is see at the emergency surgical clinic. The patient underwent a CT scan of the abdomen and a small pelvis, and an inflamed appendix was diagnosed. The inflamed appendix is herniated in the inguinal hernia sac. Computed tomography was the only modality to diagnose the hernia sac contents preoperatively. Discussion: The reported incidence of Amyand’s hernia is less than 1% of all adult inguinal hernia cases. Acute appendicitis in Amyand’s hernia is even less common, with 0,1% of all cases of acute appendicitis. This hernia may be present without symptoms until the inflammation of the appendix may lead to incarceration, strangulation, necrosis, perforation, or rupture. Early symptoms include tenderness and inguinal swelling. Conclusions: Computer tomography helps make an accurate and timely diagnosis of Amyand’s hernia, thus avoiding complications from delayed surgery.

Abstract The presence of vermiform appendix in an inguinal hernia sac is known as Amyand’s hernia. This research paper examines the case of a 28-day-old Syrian male presented with a history of an infected right-sided hydrocele from the age of 14 days. Upon admission, ultrasonography was reported as a right testicular torsion. Accordingly, emergency surgical exploration was performed, and by exposing the spermatic cord fascia, 7 mL of pus was drained, revealing the cecum and perforated appendix lying beside the right testis, which showed evidence of ischemia and bluish discoloration.

Purpose. Appendicular endometriosis mimicking appendicitis is a rare finding. Inguinal tumor in the course of appendicular endometriosis located within an inguinal hernia sac and infiltrating the periosteum of the pubic bone has not yet been described.Case Report. This paper describes a case of a rapidly enlarging, solid, unmovable, very painful upon palpation inguinal tumor, in a 36-year-old nulliparous woman. During surgery, a hard (approximately 4 cm in diameter) tumor infiltrating the periosteum of the right pubic bone and continuous with the inguinal hernia sac was dissected. The distal segment of the vermiform appendix was an element of the dissected tumor. Histological examination revealed endometriosis of the distal vermiform appendix. After 6 months of hormone treatment, she was referred for reoperation due to tumor recurrence. Once again histological examination of the resected tissue revealed endometriosis. There was no further recurrence of the disease with goserelin therapy. In addition to the case report, we present a review of the literature about endometriosis involving the vermiform appendix and the inguinal canal (Amyand’s hernia).Conclusion. This case expands the list of differential diagnoses of nodules found in the inguinal region of women.

Amyand’s hernia is a rare pathology of an appendix with or without inflammation within the hernia sac is named after the French born English surgeon Dr. Claudius Amyand. We hereby present a case report of this rare entity known as a type 2 Amyand’s hernia. A 64 years old male, who had had a left-sided inguinal hernia for the previous 5 years, presented with a 2-day-history of fever, pain, vomiting, and irreducibility of the hernia. Upon exploration an irreducible inguinal hernia with appendix as its content was identified. Appendectomy was performed followed by a tension free mesh repair of the underlying hernia. Consequently, our recommendation is that the decision to perform an appendectomy and/or to use mesh to repair hernias should always be individualized.

Abstract Background Reduction en mass (REM) is one of the rare complications of inguinal hernia reduction. Although REM can be detected on the basis of specific computed tomography (CT) scan findings, many radiologists are not familiar with its radiological appearance because of the scarcity of this complication, which may cause a delay in diagnosis. Case presentation The patient reported in this article was a 50-year-old Persian man with a history of inguinal hernia, who had been referred with the periumbilical pain that radiated to the right lower quadrant and developed following hernia replacement by the patient himself. REM diagnosis was based on clinical examination and CT scan findings, and surgical treatment was performed by the Lichtenstein repair and mesh implantation. Conclusions Although REM usually occurs after reduction with compression in the inguinal hernia, this unique case report highlighted the possibility of REM after self-reduction. Surgeons and radiologists should consider REM in patients with a history of inguinal hernia presenting with intestinal obstruction symptoms, even without any apparent signs of hernia in the physical examination.

Abstract Background Omentum and bowel loops are commonly seen in inguinal hernia. An unusual case of extraperitoneal herniation of ureter was detected in hernial sac with other contents, on computed tomography (CT) urography. Case presentation A 54-year-old male presented with inguinal hernia, with no previous history of surgery or trauma. Pre-operative screening showed a unilateral hydroureteronephrosis involving the pelvicalyceal system and entire ureter. No calculus was visualized in the ureter on ultrasound. On non-contrast CT (NCCT) followed by CT urography, the ureter was seen descending into the hernia sac causing hydroureteronephrosis. The patient subsequently underwent mesh repair surgery of the inguinal hernia with meticulous reduction of the herniated contents including the ureter, resulting in complete resolution of the hydroureteronephrosis. Conclusion An isolated extraperitoneal inguinal herniation of the ureter without concomitant urinary bladder involvement is extremely rare, especially with no prior history of trauma or surgery, as seen in our case. The case also exemplifies the role of pre-operative imaging as a protocol in cases of inguinal hernia to prevent per-operative complications.

Abstract This report examines the case of a 3-year-old child presenting with a 1-month history of swelling in the right groin. The boy had no associated nausea or vomiting, was afebrile and had had normal bowel movements. Attempts to reduce the swelling were only partially successful. Ultrasonography indicated the presence of turbid hydrocele and a hernia sac containing an intestinal loop. Accordingly, the patient underwent an urgent herniotomy. Exposing the hernia sac revealed 5 cm Meckel’s diverticulum, and the base of the diverticulum was resected from the inside of the hernia sac. The boy was discharged 4 days after the operation in good clinical condition. The presented case highlights the need to consider Littre’s hernia when dealing with partially reduced inguinal hernias in children with no general signs or evidence of intestinal obstruction.

Abstract Amyand’s hernia is an uncommon form of inguinal hernia. It represents <1% of all hernias and its complication with appendicitis is still rarer with 0.1–0.13% being reported. A 78-year-old woman was taken to the emergency room with pain in the right groin. The patient was assessed by ultrasound with the clinical suspicion of an inguinal hernia. We present the ultrasonographic features of appendicitis within an inguinal hernia sac. A tubular image that terminated in a blind-ended tip in the longitudinal plane and a target image on the cross-sectional plane were consistent with the sonographically demonstrated appendix. The diagnosis of Amyand’s hernia is difficult in the clinical setting. The patient is frequently referred to surgery with the diagnosis of an incarcerated hernia. Ultrasound is a good imaging modality that detects and characterizes this uncommon condition.

A 33-year-old postpartum patient, who had an uncomplicated repeat caesarean section 4 weeks prior, presented with a 2-day history of acute right lower quadrant, incisional and groin pain. She was found to have a palpable tender lump in the right groin. A CT scan with contrast identified fluid along the anterior abdominal wall of the right lower quadrant (inguinal region) measuring about 1.7 cm, a preliminary diagnosis of an incarcerated inguinal hernia was made and the patient underwent immediate surgery. The hernia sac was dissected free and had chocolate cyst that was confirmed to be endometrioma on histopathology. The hernia defect was repaired. Postoperative, the patient did well and was discharged home. We emphasise to consider this differential diagnosis of extrapelvic inguinal endometrioma in reproductive-aged women with or without history of endometriosis especially in a post-caesarean patient who has atypical presentations.
