Abstract
Surgical interventions related to inflammatory changes in the appendix are among the most common surgeries in inpatient departments. Yet, there is a high variability in the position of the appendix, and various abnomalities in its structure, which can cause errors in the management of patients. The article describes a case of aplasia of the appendix and presents literature data on the prevalence of this pathology (1:100,000 laparotomies).
