Acute epiploic appendagitis, an inflammatory process of epiploic appendages, is a rare cause of acute abdominal pain. Accurate diagnosis of this self limiting, conservatively treatable disease is important for preventing unnecessary hospital admission and surgery. In this paper we present pre- and post-treatment computed tomography findings of a 41 years old male patient who admitted to emergency service with acute abdominal pain and diagnosed with acute epiploic appendagitis.

Akut epiploik apandisit kolonun epiploik apendikslerinin enflamasyonu olup akut karın ağrısının nadir bir nedenidir. Kendini sınırlayan, konservatif olarak tedavi edilen bu hastalığın doğru tanısı gereksiz hastane yatışı ve cerrahi girişimlerin önüne geçilmesi bakımından önemlidir. Bu yazıda akut karın ağrısı şikayetiyle acil servise gelen ve akut epiploik apandisit tanısı alan 41 yaşındaki hastanın tanı aşamasındaki ve tedavi sonrasındaki BT bulguları sunulmuştur.
