| Core Tip |
Xanthogranulomatous inflammation is characterized histologically by a collection of lipid-laden macrophages admixed with lymphocytes, plasma cells, neutrophils, and often multinucleated giant cells with or without cholesterol clefts. Xanthogranulomatous appendicitis (XGA) has rarely been reported to date. In this review article, we present a patient with XGA, and review data from all articles published on this rare situation. This review study shows that XGA is associated with significant diagnostic and therapeutic dilemmas due to its variable presentation. It is often associated with interval appendectomies, and a significant number of patients require bowel resection due to the common presentation of a tumoral lesion. |
