A la exploración física se encontró dolor localizado en fosa iliaca derecha a la palpación profunda, sin datos de irritación peritoneal ni signos apendiculares. Los laboratorios revelaron leucocitosis de 13,300 con neutrofilia y las radiografías simples de abdomen mostraron lito calcificado en fosa iliaca derecha. Se realizó laparotomía exploradora con hallazgos transoperatorios de apéndice abscedada de 6 × 3 cm, perforada en tercio medio y con fecalito libre de aproximadamente 2 cm en cavidad abdominal. Evolucionó sin complicaciones y egresó al cuarto día.]]></p></abstract>
