A 37-year-old woman with no relevant past medical history presented to the emergency department after a 2-day-long period of crampy abdominal pain with an inability for oral intake because of persistent vomiting. The physical examination was unremarkable. Abdominal CT scan with water-soluble oral contrast revealed an ileocecal intussusception (Fig. 1). Because the patient was hemodynamically stable and no abdominal tenderness was found, a delayed surgical intervention was planned with laparoscopic approach. During intervention, the intestinal invagination was reduced, a cecal neoplasm suspected, and a right hemicolectomy with complete mesocolic excision was performed (Fig. 2). Postoperative recovery was uneventful, with discharge on postoperative day 5. The definite pathological report showed well-differentiated colon adenocarcinoma pT2N1aMx, with 1 of 49 positive lymph nodes.

Review
A 74-year-old woman had a recent weight loss and history of breast and cutaneous malignancy. Medical evaluation included colonoscopy, which showed a 4 x 3 cm, vascular-appearing mass in the cecum. It was blue-tinged, soft, and easily deformed by pressure. Endoscopic ultrasonography characterized the lesion as a fluid-filled submucosal mass. Because of the suspicion of neoplasm, the patient had exploratory laparotomy and right hemicolectomy. Histopathologic examination revealed a lymphangioma. We review the literature regarding diagnosis and management of colonic lymphangiomas and describe a distinctive case.

Cancer of the colon disguised as appendicitis occurs more frequently than is generally realized and will probably be seen more often as the elderly population increases. In all patients over 40 years of age presenting with acute appendicitis, further diagnostic testing (ie, double contrast enema or colonoscopy) should be done to rule out occult cancer.

Isolated ischaemic caecal necrosis is an unusual event. Because right colon location is less frequent than left one, it may not be considered in the differential diagnosis of right lower quadrant pain. With the typical symptoms (right-sided abdominal pain and tenderness), patients are suspected of having either appendicitis or caecal carcinoma. CT-scan images of caecal wall thickening are often misinterpretated as acecal neoplasm or abscess. We present a case of isolated ischaemic caecal necrosis misinterpretated as a caecal neoplasm.
