Sangram Singh1, Prashant Adivarekar, Santosh J Karmarkar.   

Abstract

Acute scrotum is one of the rare presentations of acute appendicitis (AA) in paediatric patients. We report a case of acute scrotum due to a retrocaecal, non-perforated AA with a patent processus vaginalis. To date, 15 such cases have been reported in the literature.
