The appendix may be involved in inflammatory or necrotic processes and the treatment is emergency surgery. It is usually discovered by chance during surgery. It occurs in 0.5%-5% of all femoral hernias. In 0.08%-0.13% of cases, the appendix can present inflammatory or necrotic processes due to the narrowness of the neck of the femoral canal; in these cases, an emergency surgery is required through a no standard surgical procedure. In the other cases, it is usually found accidentally during surgical repair of the hernia or more rarely diagnosed preoperatively by CT. Therefore, the purpose of our study is to report a case of DGH describing CT main findings in order to improve the preoperative diagnosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/bjrcr\/uaae009","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,1]],"date-time":"2024-03-01T10:48:58Z","timestamp":1709290138000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["A rare case of De Garengeot hernia: CT findings"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"10","author":[{"given":"Maria","family":"Iovino","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiology Unit, San Giuliano Hospital , Giugliano In Campania, Naples 80014, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anna Chiara","family":"D\u2019Elia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic Imaging and Radiotherapy, University Federico II , Naples 80100, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Maurizio","family":"Rispo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiology Unit, San Giuliano Hospital , Giugliano In Campania, Naples 80014, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Alfonso","family":"Rispo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surgery Unit, San Giuliano Hospital , Giugliano In Campania, Naples 80014, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Arturo","family":"Brunetti","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic Imaging and Radiotherapy, University Federico II , Naples 80100, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6382-3651","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Fabio","family":"Sandomenico","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiology Unit, Buon Consiglio Fatebenefratelli Hospital , Naples 80123, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,29]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"2024031122430883200_uaae009-B1","first-page":"104","article-title":"Amyand\u2019s hernia","volume":"86","author":"Hutchinson","year":"1993","journal-title":"J R Soc Med"},{"issue":"3","key":"2024031122430883200_uaae009-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"517","DOI":"10.2214\/ajr.153.3.517","article-title":"Cross-sectional imaging of abdominal wall hernias","volume":"153","author":"Wechsler","journal-title":"AJR Am J Roentgenol"},{"issue":"76","key":"2024031122430883200_uaae009-B3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"46","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.08.053","article-title":"The De Garengeot hernia: a case report of an unusual presentation of appendicitis","volume":"1","author":"Sharma","year":"2020","journal-title":"Int.
