title: [Diverticulum of the appendix: apropos of 1 case].
abstract: A case is presented of cecal appendicular diverticulum in a 52 year-old male, initially diagnosed as acute appendicitis. We emphasize the rarity or this pathology, its clinical presentation simulating a picture of acute appendicitis and its cure by appendectomy, as well as the diagnosis by pathologic study in most cases.
