It will also cover challenging cases, difficulties encountered at surgery, and potential treatment strategies.

Appendix diverticula is uncommon and a strong marker for appendiceal neoplasm. Signs and symptoms are unlikely to be different from appendicitis and the diagnosis is usually made on histological analysis rather than at surgery.
