| Abstract: | Objective: To describe a rare case of mucocele of the appendix that simulated a cystic image by pelvic ultrasound (US). Case: A patient with pelvic pain for two months and cystic image on the right ovary by US. After laparoscopy, the image showed a mucocele of the appendix. The patient underwent right colectomy. Conclusion: Mucocele may be a cause of pelvic pain and may simulate a cystic image on the right adnexa. |
