A 71-year-old patient consulted for a screening colonoscopy because of a history of multiple adenomas. Last coloscopy was realised 5 years earlier and appendix was endoscopically normal. His only history was a cure for bilateral varicose veins. No family history was recorded. Colonoscopy revealed a 2 cm dilatation of the appendicular orifice filled with mucus (Figure 1). |
