Background: Spiegel hernia is a rare type of ventral hernia that occurs when there is a defect in the semilunar line (Spiegel line) through which there is protrusion of preperitoneal fat or a peritoneal sac with or without an intra-abdominal viscus. Clinical case: A 52-year-old female patient admitted for abdominal pain and tumor in the lower right quadrant of 15 cm. In the operating room, wall plasty was performed and when hernia sac was opened, necrotic appendicitis was identified. Conclusion:The incidence of hernia is that Spiegel is very low and is lower when associated with acute appendicitis. Given its low frequency, clinical suspicion is important. The treatment is surgical.

Antecedentes: La hernia de Spiegel es un tipo de hernia ventral poco frecuente que ocurre cuando existe un defecto en la línea semilunar (línea de Spiegel), a través del cual hay protrusión de grasa preperitoneal o un saco peritoneal con o sin una víscera intraabdominal. Caso clínico: Mujer de 52 años que ingresa por dolor abdominal y un abultamiento en el cuadrante inferior derecho de 15 centímetros. En quirófano se realiza plastia de pared y al abrir el saco herniario se identifica apendicitis necrosada, por lo que se realiza apendicectomía tipo Pouchet y plastia de pared con malla de polipropileno. Conclusión: La incidencia de la hernia se Spiegel es muy baja y lo es aún más cuando se asocia a apendicitis aguda. Dada su baja frecuencia, es importante la sospecha clínica. El tratamiento es quirúrgico.
