We report two cases of amoeboma of caecum. The patients were initially diagnosed with acute appendicitis but a large cecal mass was found on surgery, giving the gross impression of tumor, Ileocaecal tuberculosis or Crohn's disease necessitating right hemicolectomy. On histopathological examination, the mass was found to be 'Amoeboma'. Mode of presentation, clinical examination and operative findings are presented along with the review of literature.
我们报告两例盲肠阿米巴瘤。患者最初被诊断为急性阑尾炎，但手术时发现盲肠有一个大肿块，大体上给人肿瘤、回盲部结核或克罗恩病的印象，因此需要进行右半结肠切除术。经组织病理学检查，发现该肿块为“阿米巴瘤”。本文介绍了其临床表现方式、临床检查及手术所见，并对相关文献进行了综述。
