Isolated cecal necrosis
Abstract
Isolated cecal necrosis is a rare disease with poorly understood etiology often mimicking acute appendicitis. Its diagnosis is difficult due to the absence of specific clinical, laboratory, ultrasound and X-ray features. We present 3 cases of isolated cecal necrosis diagnosed intraoperatively in 2023 and 2024.
