Abstract

Amyand's hernia is a rare condition in which the appendix is positioned in the inguinal hernia sac. Mucinous cysadenoma of the appendix is rather extremely rare. We report a case of a mucinous cystadenoma of the appendix which presented as an incarcerated right indirect inguinal hernia (Amyand's hernia).
