A 76-year-old currently asymptomatic man was admitted for routine sonography of the abdomen. 15 years he had had intermittently symptomatic cholecystolithiasis. 25 years before a colon contrast showed a normal coecum but no filling of the appendix. SUBSEQUENT INVESTIGATION: Sonographic examination showed the known cholecystolithisasis but additionally revealed as an incidental finding a tubular-cystic structure with a thin, echogenic wall and a hypoechogenic lumen. The lesion was located in the right upper quadrant, not compressible and arising from the coecum. Computed tomography confirmed a mucocele of the appendix without ascites and no inflammatory changes, peritoneal thickening or nodules.
