Abstract
Cases of acute appendicitis due to blunt abdominal trauma (BAT) are rare, and usually regarded as two separate entities. Although the exact mechanism of acute appendicitis after BAT is unknown, several literatures reported their causal relationship. Suspicion of appendicitis should be raised in presentation of abdominal pain after BAT. We present a case report of two patients who developed acute perforated appendicitis following BAT.
