Introduction:

Acute appendicitis is the most common surgical diagnosis

of right lower abdominal pain in young adult patients, that usually required

emergency surgical intervention. It diagnosis mostly made on clinical and

non-invasive diagnostic modalities background, although other rare patholo-

gies including right colonic tumour must be concerned specially in suspicious

presentation or in older patients. We reported an adult patient presented and

diagnosed as a case of acute complicated appendicitis that operated laparo-

scopically, subsequently he underwent for life saving laparotomy, and finally

diagnosed as colonic adenocarcinoma.

Cases Report:

A 55 years oldmale diagnosed as perforated appendicitis. Lap-

aroscopic intervention for appendectomy revealed dilated inflamed cecum

with catarrhal appendix. Several days after improvement and discharged, pa-

tient came with peritonitis. Laparotomy revealed rupture cecum and proximal

right colonic ring stricture. The resected hemi colonic segment histology re-

vealed adenocarcinoma.

Discussion:

The diagnosis of right colonic tumour is difficult in emergency

condition because appendicitis is the dominant expected diagnosis in adult

patients, the absence of colonic emergency complications (perforation and

obstruction), and the inaccurate scanning study.

Conclusion:

Right colonic-cecal adenocarcinoma

is a rare entity, it can be presented as cecaitis in

adult patient, and the improper diagnosis of it may

lead to incomplete surgical management and sub-

sequent fatal complications.
