description | Amyand's hernia is a rare case of inguinal hernia where the hernia sac contains the appendix, and depending on the condition of the appendix, this type is classified into under types where the appendix can be normal, inflamed, or even perforated. Accordingly, the patient's condition can be good or bad. In our case, we have a 13-year-old child who suffers from abdominal pain and discomfort. He is referred to the emergency department with this complaint. By clinical and radiological examination, the presence of an inguinal hernia containing the appendix was found. Based on that, we performed emergency and investigative surgery in order to determine the condition of the appendix and whether there is suffocation or not. It was found by surgical opening that the hernia was incarcerated and this required excision of the appendix and repair of the hernia. |
