Abstract:
A case of a malakoplakia of the appendix in a sixty-year-old woman is reported. No involvement of the organs or important general diseases were present and the patient, after the appendicectomy, promptly recovered. Only three cases of malakoplakia of the appendix have previously been described in the literature and they are briefly summarized.
