Abstract

Case report: The literature states that the urachus cyst is rare, so the diagnosis is even more difficult to establish, because symptoms only manifest when a complication already exists, so it can be assumed that many people have a urachus cyst, and without having symptoms, they continue with their life activities without problems. Next, we present the case of a patient, who admitted to a clinic suggestive of an acute abdomen due to appendicitis, but the imaging tests revealed another diagnosis, confirming with the surgical intervention and subsequently pathological anatomy.
