Abstract

Hernias most commonly occur in the inguinal area and it is named as inguinal hernia. The sac of an inguinal hernia may contain intraabdominal organ such as the sigmoid colon, cecum, omentum and the appendix. An Amyand's hernia, was first reported by Claudius Amyand in 1735, is a rare occurrence where the vermiform appendix is found in an inguinal hernia sac. It is most commonly found intra-operatively during a right-sided inguinal hernia repair. The incidence of an Amyand's Hernia is 1% of inguinal hernias occurring most often in male patients. We present a case of incarcerated right inguinal hernia containing the plastrone appendicitis and we review the literature on this rare condition.

Özet

Herniler en sık kasık bölgesinde bulunur ve inguinal herniler olarak adlandırılır. Herni kesesinin içerisinde sigmoid kolon, çekum, apendix ve omentum başta olmak üzere çeşitli karın içi organlar bulunabilir. İlk olarak 1735 yılında Claudius Amyand tarafından tarif edilen amyand herni, fıtık kesesi içersinde apendix vermiformisin bulunduğu nadir görülen bir durumdur. Genellikle sağ inguinal herni nedeniyle operasyona alınan hastalarda intraoperatif olarak tanınır. Kasık fıtıkları içersinde % 1 oranında ve erkeklerde daha sık görülür. Biz bu olgumuzda inkarsere sağ inguinal herni nedeniyle operasyona alınan ve fıtık kesesi içersinde blastrone apendisit saptadığımız hastayı literatür bilgileri ışığında sunmayı amaçladık.
