Abstract

Fortuitous discovery of an Amyand hernia during surgery in a patient admitted to the emergency room for groin pain likely related to a strangulated inguinal hernia. The aim of this study is to contribute to the understanding of this disease, particularly in terms of diagnosis and optimization of surgical management. Although serious complications have been described, Amyand hernia generally has a good prognosis. However, practitioners must master the clinical and surgical peculiarities of Amyand hernia in order to ensure optimal and adequate treatment of the hernia while avoiding recurrence. Questions remain regarding its pathophysiology, clinical peculiarity, and treatment. More research and evidence are needed, which will be difficult to achieve due to the rarity of Amyand hernia.
