De-Garengeot-Appendizitis – seltene Variante eines alltäglichen Krankheitsbildes

De Garengeot hernia is an extremely rare pathological finding. Here, we report the case of a 69-year-old woman who presented with acute appendicitis within a femoral hernia. Although exceptionally rare, the clinician needs to be aware of this variation in order to avoid complications arising due to delays in diagnosis and therapy.
