摘要
Diverticular disease of the appendix is rare and is usually diagnosed during surgery. We report a case of a 50-year-old man who presented to the emergency department with right lower quadrant pain of 1-day duration. A preoperative diagnosis of appendiceal diverticulitis was made by computed tomography of the abdomen. The patient underwent emergency laparoscopic appendectomy, which confirmed the diagnosis. © 2015, American Society of Emergency Radiology.
