Introduction. Solitary cecal ulcer is a benign and extremely rare disease, as less than 300 cases have been reported so far. The etiology is unknown, and it can be diagnosed by pathohistological examination. Often presented as an acute abdomen and rectal bleeding, it can mock various important and urgent conditions. Treatment protocol is not defined. Extensive and radical surgeries are often performed due to this benign disease mimic. Our aim was to indicate this disease, present the treatment of this rare condition, and to facilitate the treatment plan for this disease. Case outline. Female, aged 67, was admitted to the Emergency Department with a clinical manifestation of acute appendicitis. Emergency surgery was indicated after following diagnostic tests. The intraoperative finding revealed an ulcer on the cecum, which was sutured. The patient fully recovered, and subsequent colonoscopy and pathohistological findings indicated a solitary ulcer. Conclusion. It is possible to treat this condition by retaining the organ and avoiding major surgery. Therefore, it is our opinion that it might provide significant assistance to clinicians in a similar situation. Hence, it is undoubtedly an interesting case for archiving, especially since such a case has not been recorded in our country yet.
