Abstract

Appendiceal duplication is often a surprise finding in patients undergoing appendicectomy which is one of the most common surgeries being performed worldwide. Even though this clinical entity is rare, misdiagnosis may have serious consequences both for the patient as well as attending surgeonand hence this clinical entity should never be missed. Here we present a similar case of appendiceal duplication in a patient presenting with signs and symptoms of acute appendicitis along with review of literature.
