Özet
Presence of appendix vermiformis (non-inflamed or inflamed) in inguinal hernia is called Amyand's hernia. The incidence of Amyand hernia is approximately 1%. Clinical presentation varies, depending on extent of inflammation in the hernia sac and the degree of peritoneal contamination. We presented a twenty seven years old patient with Amyand's hernia, who had chronic inflamed appendix vermiformis in right inguinal hernia sac.
