Özet

Amyand's hernia is a rare condition defined by the inclusion of the appendix vermiformis within the hernia sac. Its incidence among cases of groin hernia is less than 1%. The clinical manifestation of incarcerated inguinal hernia generally masks the symptoms and signs of acute appendicitis, which renders preoperative diagnosis difficult. In this study, we present two cases of Amyand's hernia that were diagnosed preoperatively. The patients were taken for operation with the prediagnosis of incarcerated inguinal hernia. We evaluated these cases along with data from prior studies.
