Abstract
Cancer of the colon disguised as appendicitis occurs more frequently than is generally realized and will probably be seen more often as the elderly population increases. In all patients over 40 years of age presenting with acute appendicitis, further diagnostic testing (ie, double contrast enema or colonoscopy) should be done to rule out occult cancer.
