Popis: | Acute appendicitis is a rare complication after appendectomy and usually occurs as a result of leaving a long stump in the initial surgery. However, a residual appendiceal tip with its feeding mesenteric arteries is much rarer and can also lead to acute appendicitis. In this report, we present a patient with acute appendicitis caused by the appendiceal tip remaining after appendectomy. |
