Abstract
A vermiform appendix in an inguinal hernia is known as Amyand’s hernia. The incidence of having a normal appendix within the hernia sac varies from 0.5% to 1%, whereas only 0.1% of cases complicate into acute appendicitis, underscoring the rarity of the condition. This is a case series of ten cases with different presentations and their management.
