Abstract
An Amyand’s hernia refers to the presence of a vermiform appendix within an inguinal hernia sac. The incidence of this rare condition varies in the literature, ranging from 0.19% to 1.7% of the reported inguinal hernia cases. The clinical presentation is similar to that of an incarcerated or strangulated hernia. In the case presented here, a noninflamed appendix and adherent caecum were detected during a surgery performed for an incarcerated recurrent inguinal hernia. After a prophylactic appendectomy was performed, a mesh was applied for the hernia repair

Abstract
İnguinal fıtık kesesi içerisinde appendiks vermiformis bulunması Amyand’s hernisi olarak adlandırılır. Bu nadir durumun insidansı literatürde farklılık göstermekte ve tüm inguinal hernilerin %0,19 ila %1,7’si olarak bildirilmektedir. Amyand’s herni inkarsere veya strangüle inguinal hernilere benzer bir klinik gösterir. Bu olguda, nüks inkarsere inguinal herni nedeniyle operasyona alınan hastada normal appendiks ve fıtık kesesine yapışık çekum tespit edildi. Appendektomi sonrası meşli herni onarımı yapıldı
