A fifty years old man was admitted in the Dept. of Surgery of Community Based Medical College, Bangladesh, Hospital with the history of pain and distension of lower abdomen for 4 days with obstipation for the same duration. He gave history of being assaulted and forceful introduction of some foreign body per-rectally 5 days back. History, clinical examination and abdominal X-rays diagnosed the case as impacted foreign body in rectum. He was undergone laparotomy and a big drinking glass was extracted from sigmoid colon. Patient developed subcutaneous stitch infection postoperatively and discharged from the hospital after controlling the infection.
Inguinal hernia sometimes surprises surgeons with its unexpected content. Epiploic appendagitis in hernia sac is a very rare entity. We report a 60-year-old male patient with a painless inguinal mass. Surgical exploration showed a 4-cm mass beneath the external oblique aponeurosis that consisted of a hernia sac containing an inflamed and remarkably swollen appendix epiploica of the sigmoid colon secondary to torsion. The patient recovered after the resection of epiploic appendix and a tension-free hernia repair.
