The association of Enterobius vermicularis and appendicitis were recognized in the late XIXe century, when an incidence of 19% of appendicular infestation in children with appendicitis was reported. Other studies showed that the relationship between this parasitosis and appendicitis varied from 0.2 to 41.8 worldwid. In this paper we present an adult patient with acute appendicitis caused by Enterobius Vermicularis discovered in per-surgical procedure, and we’re going to discuss on the bases of the literature the epidemiological, clinical, and therapeutic characteristics of the appendicular localization of oxyurosis.

Appendicitis is a common childhood condition requiring surgical intervention and delayed diagnosis can have serious consequences. This report describes the case of a child who presented with an acute abdomen and intestinal obstruction. Multidetector (MD) CT demonstrated a left-sided caecum and an inflamed appendix with a faecolith. Maximum intensity projection (MIP) post-processing was key in identifying the appendicular artery and determine the diagnosis. At surgery, however, a mobile caecum and the appendix were positioned on the right side.
