A previously healthy 40-year-old woman with no history of foreign travel presented to the emergency department of the University College Hospital, in London, with right iliac fossa pain. Examination and ultrasound findings were consistent with a perforated appendix. During surgery, the appendicectomy was converted to a right hemicolectomy on discovery of a large inflammatory caecal mass with associated lymphadenopathy. Immediate postoperative recovery was uncomplicated, and histological examination showed an inflammatory caecal mass of unknown cause.

有趣的一对阿米巴感染

之前没有外游史的健康的40岁女性因right骨右窝疼痛而被送往伦敦大学学院医院急诊科。检查和超声检查结果与穿孔阑尾一致。在手术过程中，由于发现大的炎症性盲肠肿块伴有淋巴结肿大，阑尾切除术改为右半结肠切除术。术后即刻恢复并不复杂，组织学检查显示原因未知的炎症性盲肠肿块。
