Appendicitis on Appendicular Stump in the General Surgery Department of the Hospital of the District of the Commune IV

It is defined as a process of inflammation of the residual appendicular tissue after an appendectomy. CT scan of the abdomen is the most useful imaging method to demonstrate and diagnose the other lesions considered in the differential diagnosis. If missed, it can lead to significant morbidity and mortality with complications such as perforation and peritonitis. We report a case of appendicitis on appendicular stump in a 44-year-old patient with a history of appendicectomy in 2017.
