Abstract
Acute abdominal pain may be attributed to a variety of medical or surgical conditions. Acute appendicitis, a common entity in differential diagnosis, may present with diverse clinical manifestations. It may occasionally mimic urogenital disorders and be particularly challenging to diagnose in women. We report a 34-year-old woman who had undergone radical hysterectomy 2 years previously for stage Ib cervical cancer. She presented with lower abdominal pain, dysuria, and fever of 2 days' duration, unrelieved by 5 days of antibiotics. Computed tomography revealed an enlarged appendix surrounded by an abscess, and appendectomy was performed. Pathologic examination of the surgical specimen revealed metastatic cervical cancer in the appendix. Patients with acute appendicitis may manifest with urologic disorders that can be caused by metastatic tumor.
