Epiploic appendagitis in a 24-year-old woman.
American Journal of Emergency Medicine 2008 September
Epiploic appendagitis is a very rare condition that results from acute inflammation of an appendix epiploica. We report a case involving a 24-year-old woman who presented to the emergency department with abdominal pain localized to the left lower quadrant. The patient was diagnosed with epiploic appendagitis, which was confirmed through findings obtained from a contrast-study computed tomography of the abdomen. The patient was subsequently taken to the operating room for a diagnostic laparoscopy due to persistent pain. Necrotic epiploic appendagitis was found on the descending colon, which was removed laparoscopically.
