摘要
Hernia is commonly operated in surgical department either emergency basis or as elective case. Unusual contents of hernia sac are uncommon, but are likely to be encountered by a surgeon in his career due to the frequency of hernia repair. The presence of vermiform appendix in inguinal hernias, referred to as Amyand's hernia, is rare occurring in about 1% of inguinal hernias. This is to present our experience of unusual contents in inguinal hernia sac. Amyand's hernia is not very often seen in the clinical practice and its pre- operative diagnosis is very difficult hence awareness of this disease condition is essential for pre- operative suspicion and even diagnosis of the condition.
