CT findings showed pericecal fat stranding and prominent lymph nodes concerning for acute appendicitis, but the appendix could not be adequately visualized; due to the indeterminate CT findings, general surgery proceeded to perform an exploratory laparotomy on the patient and removed an appendiceal mass-like structure that was revealed to be invasive adenocarcinoma of the colon per pathology.
