Abstract

Primary epiploic appendicitis are considered to be a rare cause of acute abdomen. We reported 2 cases in which computed tomography CT suggested the diagnosis. Primary epiploic appendicitis shows characteristic CT findings that allow the diagnosis and follow-up. This entity resolves spontaneously and CT helps in avoiding unnecessary surgery.
