| Core Tip |
The diagnosis and management of a patient with epiploic appendagitis (EA), who presents with acute abdominal pain, can be challenging. A high index of suspicion, exclusion of other causes of acute abdominal pain by computerised tomographic scan and an a low threshold for an early diagnostic laparoscopy is the way forward in establishing the diagnosis of EA and preservation of peritoneal dialysis catheter.
