Abstract | Appendicitis is a common condition in daily clinical practice. Appendicitis due to foreign bodies is uncommon and may result from obstruction or perforation mechanism. We present a rare case of a 43-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with perforated appendicitis due to a fish bone by imaging studies and confirmed postoperatively. Confirming the fish bone causing the perforation on images is sometimes difficult, requiring the radiologist to actively search and determine the source. In addition to appendectomy, the surgeon also needs to pay attention to removing all foreign objects and treating perforations of surrounding organs. |
