Abstract

We report a case of "De Garengeot's hernia" (DGH), a rare condition that occurs when the inflamed appendix is localized inside a femoral hernia. The appendix may be involved in inflammatory or necrotic processes and the treatment is emergency surgery. It is usually discovered by chance during surgery. It occurs in 0.5%-5% of all femoral hernias. In 0.08%-0.13% of cases, the appendix can present inflammatory or necrotic processes due to the narrowness of the neck of the femoral canal; in these cases, an emergency surgery is required through a no standard surgical procedure. In the other cases, it is usually found accidentally during surgical repair of the hernia or more rarely diagnosed preoperatively by CT. Therefore, the purpose of our study is to report a case of DGH describing CT main findings in order to improve the preoperative diagnosis.

一例罕见的 De Garengeot 疝:CT 发现。
我们报告了一例 "De Garengeot疝"(DGH)病例,这是一种罕见病,当发炎的阑尾位于股疝内时就会发生。阑尾可能涉及炎症或坏死过程,治疗方法是进行紧急手术。它通常是在手术中偶然发现的。股疝发生率为 0.5%-5%。在 0.08%-0.13% 的病例中,由于股骨管颈部狭窄,阑尾可能出现炎症或坏死过程;在这些病例中,需要通过非标准手术程序进行紧急手术。在其他病例中,阑尾炎通常是在手术修补疝气时意外发现的,或者很少在术前通过 CT 诊断出来。因此,我们研究的目的是报告一例 DGH 病例,描述 CT 的主要发现,以改进术前诊断。
