Ipsilateral Aymand's and Richter's hernia, complicated by necrosing fascitis.

This study presents the case of a patient with necrobiosis or necrosing fascitis of the inguinal region, secondary to a complicated Amyand's hernia with a concomitant ipsilateral Richter's hernia. The patient was treated with open trans-abdominal surgery and hernia repair through the pre-peritoneal approach, plus anti-microbians, and thrice-daily wound cleansing and dressings to the inguinal region. Evolution was satisfactory. There are no reports in the literature of a case such as this. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
