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.

Abstract Background Subhepatic appendicitis is an exceedingly rare presentation, accounting for 0.01% of acute appendicitis cases. It is of prime importance to be aware of variants and manage such challenging cases accordingly. Case presentation We present a case of a middle-aged Saudi woman with subhepatic perforated appendicitis and peritonitis who underwent an exploratory laparotomy and appendectomy. Conclusions The initial diagnosis and surgical management of such patients is challenging due to an atypical presentation. The surgical management of such patients is discussed with a brief review of the literature.
