Appendiceal stump abscess after open appendisectomy is extremely rare. Stump appendicitis after laparoscopic appendisectomy is more common due to non inversion of stump and a long stump. In our case, patient was operated for perforated appendix, sealed by omentum with minimal collection in Right Iliac Fossa. Her post operative period was uneventful. But she developed an abscess localised in right iliac fossa five months after appendisectomy. It was a rare presentation.Downloads
