Case description

View of the “crows´s foot” appearance of the haustral folds. Appendiceal opening may be found in the cecum in up to 20% of cases. Characteristic appearance is a dimple-like depression about 5mm in diameter. When there has been previous surgery, the mouth of the appendix may be eroded, giving the appendiceal stump a polypoid appearance.
