Caeco-peritoneal band as a potential cause of right iliac fossa pain in children

Laparoscopic appendectomy appears to be an effective treatment for CRIF pain, while also providing the opportunity to diagnose and treat potential sources of CRIF pain other than the appendix. Consistent with the literature, a small number of patients appear to have resolution of pain, despite no histological change being identified in the appendix removed and no other pathology having been identified. The same histological changes commonly seen have also been demonstrated in appendixes removed incidentally. Caution therefore should be applied when interpreting the significance of histological changes seen.

Caeco-peritoneal band as a potential cause of right iliac fossa pain in children

Abstract: CPB is a potential cause of chronic RIF pain in patients with unremarkable examination findings and negative serological and radiological investigations. Laparoscopic identification and division of the CPB has produced symptom resolution in this cohort of patients.
