Abstract	Stump appendicitis is an uncommon but dangerous appendectomy complication that is frequently misdiagnosed as other illnesses. Stump appendicitis has become more common and more frequent in recent years, most likely as a result of the growing popularity of laparoscopic appendectomy procedures. Early detection is essential for initiating treatment and preventing major side effects. We present a case of a 22 year old male who complained of pain in right lower quadrant with nausea and fever, nearly 2 months after laparoscopic appendectomy. Imaging findings revealed stump appendicitis which was treated surgically.
Keywords	SA=stump appendicitis, CBC= complete blood count, CECT= contrast enhanced computed tomography.
