Abstract

Inguinal hernia sacs may contain all abdominal organs including the stomach. The frequency of perforated appendix involvement is even lower. Herein we report a case of perforated appendicitis accompanied by strangulated inguinal hernia. A 58 year-old male admitted to hospital with 6-hour pain and swelling in the right groin. Diagnosis was strangulated inguinal hernia. Right inguinal incision was done. After the dissection of the hernia sac, perforated appendix and intraabdominal abscess were found. Because of the findings in the operation, median laparotomy was done below the umblicus. Appendectomy, abscess drainage and hernia repair were done. Patient was discharged without any complication.

Özet

Kasık fıtıklarında fıtık kesesi mide dahil tüm abdominal organları içerebilir. İçeriği perfore apendiksin oluşturması çok nadirdir. Burada boğulmuş kasık fıtığının eşlik ettiği perfore apandisit vakasını sunmaktayız. Ellisekiz yaşında erkek hastaneye 6 saattir devam eden sağ kasıkta ağrı ve şişlik şikayeti ile kabul edildi. Tanı boğulmuş kasık fıtığı idi. Fıtık kesesinin diseksiyonundan sonra, perfore apandisit ve intraabdominal apse bulundu. Bu ameliyat bulguları ile göbek altı orta hat insizyonu yapıldı. Hasta apendektomi, drenaj ve fıtık onarımı yapıldıktan sonra şifa ile taburcu edildi.
