Left-sided incarcerated Amyand’s hernia with cecum and terminal ileum: a case report

Left-sided incarcerated Amyand's hernia with cecum and terminal ileum involvement is a rare clinical entity. Even though it is not common, appendicitis is one of the comorbidities that can be seen in patients with left-sided incarcerated Amyand's hernia with cecum and terminal ileum. Surgeons should have a high index of clinical suspicion and be aware of the potential involvement of appendix, cecum, and ileum as part of an incarcerated hernia during surgery, even in the left inguinal region. In this case, left-sided incarcerated inguinal hernia which involved inflamed appendix, cecum, and terminal ileum was successfully managed using an inguinal approach.
