We report a case of volvulus of the appendix on appendicular tumor without necrosis. Pathological examination confirmed a bilharzian granuloma. We retained the preoperative diagnosis of an appendicular abscess. Our aim is to draw the attention of surgeons to the existence of other rare anatomopathological forms of appendicitis.
