Core Tip	This is a study to investigate clinical and pathological characteristics of schistosomal appendicitis (SA). SA is a serious disease, which is easy to be complicated with intestinal malignant tumors. SA has no specific clinical manifestations and laboratory tests, and the prognosis may be poor. It is more likely to be misdiagnosed and missed diagnosis in clinical work. Although chronic schistosomiasis has decreased year by year, the proportion of SA has not decreased in the past decade.
