Amyand's Hernia diagnosed preoperatively via a CT scan: A case report.

Amyand's hernia is a rare type of inguinal hernia characterized by the presence of the vermiform appendix within the hernia sac. It was named after Claudius Amyand who performed the world's first successful appendectomy on an 11-year-old boy with a right inguinal hernia in 1735 and discovered a herniated appendix during surgery. This condition warrants urgent surgical treatment, with the type of surgical intervention depending on the appendix's condition.
