Acute epiploic appendagitis mimicking symptoms of urinary tract infection: A diagnostic enigma in the emergency department

The epiploic appendages (also known as appendices epiploicae) are usually located on the anti‐mesenteric surface of the colon, extending from the caecum to the rectosigmoid, and epiploic appendagitis (EA) is the inflammation of these appendages.
