摘要
Stump appendicitis is often not considered in patients with a surgical history of appendectomy. We report an unusual case of right upper quadrant stump appendicitis after previous operation for intussusception with incidental appendectomy. Abdominal computed tomographic scan is more efficient to make an early diagnosis of stump appendicitis to prevent further complications and prolonged hospitalization.
