An appendiceal lesion at computed tomographic colonography (CTC) could be a range of conditions which presents a diagnostic dilemma. The importance of careful scrutiny of 3D fly-through as well as 3D and 2D images is essential to exclude other possible appendiceal pathologies. A partial and a complete inversion of the appendix at CTC are described.
