Аннотация
HISTORY AND CLINICAL FINDINGS: A 39-year-old patient was admitted because of pain in the right mid and lower abdomen of 2 weeks duration with vomiting and postprandial nausea. He complained of changing stool habits with diarrhoea and constipation. Clinically he showed a slight tenderness in the right lower abdomen.
INVESTIGATIONS: Routine laboratory test were normal including CRP and WBC. Ultrasound showed a non-compressible mass with low intensity echoes, 3.6 x 4.6 cm in diameter in the right mid abdomen, slightly tender, surrounded by a circular, intestine-like structure. A gastrografin-swallow didn't reveal any obstacle in the proximal small intestine and was inconclusive further distal. A CT scan demonstrated a ileocoecal invagination extending in the colon ascendens to the right flexure with suspicion of a tumor. At the colonoscopy on the next day the invagination was not apparent any more, but a well-rounded tumour in the appendix region was seen.
DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT AND COURSE: Suspecting a coecal tumour with remitting ileocoecal invagination a ileocoecal resection was performed on the third day. The tumour proved to be a mass of mucus with parts of a villo-mucinous cystadenoma of the UMP type. Recovery was uneventful.
CONCLUSION: Mucoceles of the appendix can cause ileocoecal invagination in the adult.
