  La hernia de Amyand es una enfermedad rara que se observa en aproximadamente el 1 % de todas las hernias, y sus complicaciones como la apendicitis aguda o perforada, son aún más raras, aproximadamente el 0,1 %. Su diagnóstico es muy difícil en el período preoperatorio y suele ser un hallazgo incidental. Se recibió un paciente masculino de setenta y tres años de edad que acudió al servicio de emergencias debido a dolor abdominal tipo punzante de moderada intensidad localizado en región inguinal derecha de 4 días de evolución, no refirió otros síntomas acompañantes. Se diagnosticó una hernia inguinal Nyhus III, Amyand tipo 2 y se le realizó apendicectomía incidental y reducción del saco herniario. Durante el postoperatorio no se observaron complicaciones.   Palabras clave: Hernia de Amyand, hernia de Garengeot, hernia inguinal, apendicitis aguda, apéndice cecal.   Abstract Amyand's hernia is a rare disease seen in approximately 1% of all hernias, and its complications such as acute or perforated appendicitis are even rarer, approximately 0.1%. Its diagnosis is very difficult in the preoperative period and is usually an incidental finding. A seventy-three-year-old male patient was received who came to the emergency service due to stabbing abdominal pain of moderate intensity located in the right inguinal region of 4 days of evolution, he did not refer other accompanying symptoms. A Nyhus III, Amyand type 2 inguinal hernia was diagnosed and incidental appendectomy and reduction of the hernial sac were performed. During the postoperative period, no complications were observed.   Keywords: Amyand hernia, Garengeot hernia, inguinal hernia, acute appendicitis, cecal appendix.

Introduction.Inguinal hernia is a common disorder with an estimated prevalence of 1.2% of the entire population and it is 12 times more common in males.Objective.To describe a case of appendix with signs of inflammation in the hernia sac, condition that is rare and difficult to diagnose, and to perform literature review, describing the most relevant aspects and the main controversies.Method.Report of a case and search in PubMed on June 1, 2015, using the terms “Appendix” [MeSH term] AND “hernia, inguinal” [MeSH term].Results.The search resulted in 38 articles in total, and after deleting the articles that were not part of the inclusion criteria, there were 26 case reports remaining.Discussion.The search resulted in a total of 38 articles and after deleting the articles that were not part of the inclusion criteria, there were 26 case reports remaining.Conclusion.Amyand’s hernia is a rare and difficult to diagnose condition, being commonly found occasionally in surgical procedures. It should be remembered in the presence of cases of incarcerated hernia, due to its possible complications if not diagnosed.

Introduction: Fournier’s gangrene is a rare but fast deteriorating and serious condition with high mortality. In most cases, it is characterized as necrotizing fasciitis of the perineum and external genitals. Amyand’s hernia is a rare condition where the appendix is contained in the sac of an inguinal hernia. Inflammatory alterations in the appendix account only for 0.1 % of the cases when Amyand’s hernia is verified. Fournier’s gangrene as a complication of a late diagnosis of appendicitis located in the inguinal canal is described in the literature as rare case reports. Case report: The case report of a 70-year-old patient with Fournier’s gangrene resulting from gangrenous appendicitis of Amyand’s hernia. Conclusion: Fournier’s gangrene as a complication of Amyand’s hernia is a rare condition. Only sporadic case reports thereof can be found in the literature. Because of the rarity of this pathology and the lack of randomized controlled studies, it is difficult to determine the optimal treatment according to the principles of evidence-based medicine. An appropriate approach for this condition appears to be the combination of guidelines developed in Amyand’s therapy according to Losanoff and Basson, along with the recommended “gold standard” therapy for Fournier’s gangrene. This means early and highly radical surgical debridement, adequate antibiotic therapy and intensive care.

Multiple researchers have given numerous guidelines in the clinical management of this disorder in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, after comprehensive works on the subject. As a result, a very wide variety of surgical procedures are now available to the surgeon to suit the requirement. There have been numerous advances in the management of inguinal hernia. Inguinal hernias can conveniently be repaired under all kinds of anaesthesia, namely general, spinal and local. Whereas the general anaesthesia requires the services of an experienced anaesthetist and new devices and spinal anaesthesia requires postoperative impairment while local anaesthesia is safe to prescribe, easy and efficient and does not cause postoperative complications. This work consisted of a study group of twenty-five adult patients of uncomplicated inguinal hernias, who after repair of hernias, which after repair of hernias were allowed early ambulation and had a short hospital, stay of one day post operatively. The second control group consisted of similar twenty-five patients who are subjected to conventional delayed ambulation and prolonged hospital stay. The results of repair in the two groups were compared; the available literature on the subject was reviewed. The implementation of ”shortstay surgery” not only relieves the waiting list in hospitals but also offers an economic boost and provides the patient with some social advantages.

Resumen Antecedentes: la enfermedad hidatídica es una antropozoonosis causada en la mayoría de las ocasiones por el cestodo Echinococcus granulosus (EG), caracterizada por la aparición de quistes que pueden desarrollarse en diversos órganos, fundamentalmente en hígado y pulmones. Sin embargo, la aparición de estos quistes a nivel inguinal es muy infrecuente, con muy pocos casos registrados en la literatura científica. Objetivo: presentar el caso de un paciente diagnosticado de hernia inguinal incarcerada secundaria a hidatidosis peritoneal difusa. Caso clínico: varón de 27 años e intervenido de forma urgente por tumoración inguinal irreductible y dolorosa de 24 horas de evolución. En quirófano se evidencia una hernia inguinal indirecta con presencia de saco herniario que contenía epiplón sin signos de sufrimiento y en su parte distal una tumoración, pétrea y adyacente al teste derecho, la cual fue extirpada en su totalidad. El paciente fue estudiado tras los hallazgos quirúrgicos y anatomopatológicos que informaron de lesión pseudoquística y granulomatosa, por lo que se realizó una tomografía computarizada (TC) que informó de una hidatidosis peritoneal difusa. Conclusión: la presentación de la enfermedad hidatídica peritoneal como una hernia inguinal complicada es extremadamente rara.
