The eponym ‘Amyand hernia’ coined in recognition of Claudius Amyand, the first surgeon to successfully perform appendectomy in a hernia sac containing appendix, refers to the vermiform appendix within inguinal hernia. Here, we present a rare case, of Amyand’s hernia in an 18 month-old boy who was brought with an inguino-scortal swelling which later on exploration was left sided Amyand’s hernia with sliding component. Amyand’s hernia is not very often seen in the clinical practice and its pre-operative diagnosis is very difficult hence awareness of this disease condition is essential for preoperative suspicion and even diagnosis of the condition.
