Ectopic decidua reaction or deciduosis is a physiological phenomenon of pregnancy due to a progesterone induced metaplasia of the pluripotential cells of the subcelomic mesenchyma. Usually it is an incidental finding that has not been associated with clinical symptoms. Isolated cases of ectopic decidua have been reported with symptoms simulating appendicitis. We are reporting a case of deciduosis localized in the appendix with abdominal pain during the last period of pregnancy.
异位蜕膜反应或蜕膜形成是孕期一种生理现象，由孕酮诱导的体腔下间充质多能细胞化生所致。通常它是偶然发现，与临床症状无关。曾有孤立的异位蜕膜病例报告，症状类似阑尾炎。我们现报告一例孕期后期阑尾部位发生蜕膜形成并伴有腹痛的病例。
