Abstract
Radiological imaging like enhanced CT scan of the abdomen has an important role in differentiating acute epiploic appendigitis from other acute abdominal conditions along with the proper physical examination, thus promoting conservative management and avoiding surgery. However, failure of conservative management might lead to the surgical intervention.
