Deskripsi
Abstract The epiploic appendages (also known as appendices epiploicae) are usually located on the anti‐mesenteric surface of the colon, extending from the caecum to the rectosigmoid, and epiploic appendagitis (EA) is the inflammation of these appendages. We report a clinical image of epiploic appendagitis creating a diagnostic challenge.
