Femoral hernia is usually presented as a flexible, round, domed shape lying on the medial side of the thigh about 2-3 cm below the inguinal ligament. Among the external hernias, femoral hernia is the second most common inguinal hernia. Its prevalence reaches 20%. Among all inguinal hernias, femoral hernias are characterised by a high level of incarceration and strangulation. This can be as high as 60%. We would like to present a case of 71-year-old patient who was admitted to the Clinic urgently due to strangulation of Meckel's diverticulum in a right-sided femoral hernia. Strangulation of Meckel's diverticulum in femoral hernia is an extremely rare entity. It was described for the very first time in 1700 by Littre.
