Abstract:
Amyand\'s hernia is a rare condition, in which the appendix is found in the inguinal hernia sac. Many patients remain asymptomatic and this pathological condition is most commonly diagnosed intraoperatively. We report a case of a 66-year-old male who was admitted to the hospital for an inguinal hernia repair and the presence of the appendix in the inguinal hernia sac was discovered intraoperatively. We performed a reduction of the appendix in the abdominal cavity and a hernia repair with a mesh and a plug. There are few studies in literature about the appropriate method of treatment and, because of that, the therapeutic approach remains controversial. Therefore, we also conducted a review of the literature in order to obtain some conclusions regarding the management of Amyand\'s hernia.
摘要:
Amyand\的疝气是一种罕见的疾病,在腹股沟疝囊中发现阑尾。许多患者仍然无症状,并且这种病理状况最常见于术中诊断。我们报告了一例66岁的男性,他因腹股沟疝修补术入院,术中发现腹股沟疝囊中存在阑尾。我们在腹腔中进行了阑尾复位,并用网片和塞子进行了疝修复。文献中很少有关于适当的治疗方法的研究,正因为如此,治疗方法仍然存在争议。因此,我们还对文献进行了回顾,以获得一些关于Amyand's疝气治疗的结论。
