Abstract
Background: Intussusception of the appendix vermiformis is an uncommon cause of abdominal pain. The diagnosis is rarely made prior to surgery. Clinical manifestation may mimic acute appendicitis.
Objective: To report a case of intussusception of the Appendix.
Research Design: Case Report
Setting: Surgery department, Buriram hospital.
Materials and Method: We report a case of intussusception of the appendix vermiformis who was 12 year old boy with the clinical presentation of subacute appendicitis. Intraoperative finding was intussusception of the appendix and was confirmed by pathological report.
Conclusion: Patient with intussusception of appendix may presented with subacute appendicitis. Various imaging modalities were limited value in making a correct diagnosis preoperatively.
Key words: Intussusception of the appendix, diagnosis, Case report
