ABSTRACT
We present the case of a 23-year-old woman with atypical clinical and radiological findings of subacute appendicitis. When abdominal plain film and contrast medium enema examination show atypical findings and ultrasound results are uncertain, CT should be considered. CT after peroral and intravenous contrast administration can confirm or exclude the diagnosis of suspected appendicitis showing the possible presence, location and degree of inflammation, phlegmon and abscess masses.
