Paper Title: Appendicular actinomycosis: rare but curable.

Abstract: Appendicitis is still one of the most common disease human suffer from. Though common the pathophysiology is still not fully elucidated specially for non acute forms of the disease. Actinomycosis of appendix is a rare form of disease which usually manifests as complicated or chronic appendicocecal pathology and requires specific antibiotic therapy after diagnosis for complete cure. Here we are presenting a case report of a 25 years male patient who presented with chronic intermittent lower abdominal pain and was diagnosed of appendicitis with appendicolith for which he underwent appendicectomy and post-operatively diagnosed as actinomycosis and received antibiotic therapy. Appendicitis is a common pathology that clinicians encounter and though rare actinomycosis is a well documented cause of this. The diagnosis usually occurs in a background of complicated appendicitis and after final histopathology report. Proper antibiotic therapy post diagnosis is essential for achieving cure.
