A RARE CAUSE OF ABDOMINAL PAIN SYNDROME IN A 9-YEAR-OLD GIRL

An own clinical observation of vascular malformation of ileac mesentery with torsion around the peduncle and strangulation in the  right inguinal canal in a 9-year-old girl is presented. The girl was admitted for suspected acute appendicitis. Diagnostic laparoscopy, laparoscopic removal of the fixed formation and its video-assisted removal were carried out considering lack of obvious clinical and laboratory signs of acute appendicitis and pain syndrome preservation. The clinical case shows that it is possible to come across a rare cause of abdominal pain syndrome reconfirming the diagnostic value and therapeutic possibilities of laparoscopy.
