INTRODUCTION: Non-occlusive caecal @entity1188 is a rare condition that has been described in association with a variety of clinical entities, generally due to a low-flow state, and has been reported to occur in association with @entity299 , open-heart surgery, certain drugs, and haemodialysis. The aim of this article is to describe the presentation, diagnosis and management of this unusual clinical problem. CASE PRESENTATION: We report on an 84-year-old female with known @entity299 presenting with right lower @entity490 , @entity925 and @entity491 . Although initial clinical findings were highly suggestive of @entity697 , CT revealed marked circumferential wall thickening of the caecum. Intraoperatively, caecal @entity39 was confirmed, while the appendix and the remainder of the intestine appeared normal. There was no evidence of major @entity432 or @entity887 . The right hemicolectomy was performed with ileo-transverse @entity254 . Histopathologic analysis demonstrated isolated transmural caecal @entity39 with marked infiltration of the caecal wall by numerous bacteria and neutrophils as a consequence of nonocclusive @entity1960 . The @entity1 recovered completely and was discharged from the hospital on the tenth postoperative day without any surgical complications. CONCLUSION: Partial caecal @entity39 should be included in the differential diagnosis of acute right lower @entity158 , especially in elderly @entity1 with @entity299 . Key words: partial caecal @entity39 , @entity63 , @entity299 .
