title: [Double appendicitis--a rare pathologic entity].
abstract: We report on a clinical case of appendicitis duplex with atypical and previously not described localisation of the second appendix at the right colic flexure in a 11 years old patient. Type of localisation and synchronicity of the inflammation have not been reported in literature so far. Pathological classification of the double appendix and problems of synchronous inflammation are discussed.
