[Carcinoma metastasis into the vermiform appendix].
Metastases into the appendix vermiformis are very rare. The authors present a case of a secondary of gastric carcinoma into the appendix vermiformis. In the patient the malignant disease was manifested with the clinical picture of diffuse peritonitis caused by perforation of the aboral portion of the appendix vermiformis at the site of the exulcerated secondary of the carcinoma. The authors give also an account of secondaries into the appendix vermiformis described in the literature.
