Abstract:
We report the case of a 79-year-old woman who presented with an increasingly painful lump in her right groin for 24 h. An incidental femoral hernia was detected on her CT scan nearly 8 months ago while investigating her medical conditions. However, its management was deferred on account of ongoing medical illness. Exploration of the lump revealed a gangrenous appendix strangulated within the femoral canal (de Garengeot hernia). The hernia was repaired primarily after appendicectomy. The patient was discharged after making an uneventful recovery.
