Acar, T.; Acar, N.; Güngör, F.; Babayev, A.; Haciyanli, M.
- Abstract
The article describes a video of a patient which shows an unexpected subhepatic appendix vermiformis noticed during an elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Topics include several reasons for considering simultaneous laparoscopic appendectomy following cholecystectomy such as the unusual large size of the appendix, a diagnosis of an acute appendicitis in the patient and the significance of removing the appendix vermiformis.
