Abstract
In September 2009, a 43-year-old woman underwent colonoscopy for investigation of recurrent pain in the lower right abdominal quadrant. She also had recurrent diarrhea (three to four movements/day) with dark blood. After exclusion of intestinal infection and parasitic infestation, colonoscopy with retrograde ileoscopy was carried out. Endoscopy showed normal appearance of the colon and the last 20 cm of the ileum, however, the mucosa in the periappendiceal region and appendiceal foramen was inflamed, with diffuse erosions and complete loss of the vascular pattern ([Fig. 1]).
