摘要
A 16-year-old woman complained of intermittent epigastric pain for one year. The gastroscopy, colonoscopy and laboratory findings were normal. Physical examination was unremarkable other than upper abdominal tenderness. The symptom was not relieved in past medical treatment. The abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan revealed appendix wall swelling and suspected appendicitis. Endoscopic retrograde appendicitis therapy (ERAT) with eyeMax (Micro-tech, China) was proposed to perform after informed consent obtained. A colonoscopy with a transparent cap (Olympus, Japan) attached to the tip was inserted into the cecum, and advanced the level of appendicular orifice. Subsequently, the Gerlach's valve was pushed aside using the transparent cap. Finally, the eyeMax was placed in the appendicular orifice, slowly moved forward in appendicular lumen. The eyeMax showed a lot of appendicular stones, and irrigated repeatedly. The stones were expulsed smoothly. The patient was discharged two days later without recurrent epigastric pain on follow-up and to date.
