Abstract

A 41-year-old woman presented with a positive fecal occult blood test. Colonoscopy showed a 20mm, elastic, hard lesion at the appendiceal orifice. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a protruding lesion in the intestine. Laparoscopic ileocecal resection was performed. Histological examination showed endometrial glands in the muscularis propria, consistent with appendiceal endometriosis. We report a patient with appendiceal endometriosis with intussusception.
