Unusual presentation of Acute Appendicitis: Report of a case -

2013 
Developmental anomalies of mid gut are relatively rare. We present an atypical case of acute appendicitis which on exploration was found to be a sub-hepatic caecum with inflamed appendix and no development of right colon. The entire colon was found to be left sided with caecum in the sub-hepatic area and the inflamed appendix going behind the right lobe of liver. Few cases of Cadaveric non rotation of gut on autopsy have been reported but presentation as acute appen-dicitis is relatively rare.
