Abstract

Appendiceal pathologies and inguinal hernias are common in general surgery; however, exceptional presentations exist, primarily associated with congenital malformations and anatomical anomalies. Appendiceal duplication and Amyand's hernia are rare entities that present diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. The first reported case of Amyand's hernia associated with appendiceal duplication in a young female patient is presented.
