Abstract
Amyand's hernia, presence of the appendix within an inguinal hernial sac, is a rare condition. We report a case of a 68-year-old woman who presented during the COVID-19 pandemic with an acute right groin pain due to a tender incarcerated inguinal hernia. Cross-sectional imaging confirmed an Amyand's hernia. She proceeded to open appendectomy via the inguinal canal and primary suture repair of her inguinal hernia. Patient was discharged the following day. Surgical management of Amyand's hernia varies depending on the resources, clinical findings and personal experience. In our opinion and experience, open hernia reduction, appendectomy and primary tissue repair repairs the most effective and appropriate approach especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.
