We report the case of a patient who swallowed a crown and three weeks later presented with abdominal pain and fever. At operation his crown was found to be causing appendicitis. Foreign bodies have previously been reported as causing appendicitis but never a crown. We discuss the appropriateness of abdominal radiology in the management of such foreign bodies.
