Amyand’s Hernia
Ghimire S, Jha A, Karki OB, Subedi S

Abstract:
A 50 years old male underwent elective mesh repair surgery for a clinically diagnosed case of right inguinal hernia which was intraoperatively revealed to contain appendix in its sac. The appendix was then removed and standard mesh hernioplasty was performed. Post-operative period was uneventful. This case highlights the incidental nature of Amyand’s hernia and reinforces the importance of considering anatomical variations during routine surgical procedures.
