Abstract
Shigellosis may mimic acute appendicitis clinically, but Shigella species rarely cause appendicitis. We experienced acute appendicitis with perforation caused by Shigella sonnei in a 24-year-old woman who had traveled abroad. (Korean J Med 76:S208-S210, 2009)
Key Words: Appendicitis; Shigella sonnei
