Abstract
Urothelial rests are a very rare incidental finding in the vermiform appendix; herein we report the fourth of such a case in a 33-year-old male who presented with acute appendicitis and who was also found to have two incidental foci of well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumour in the vermiform appendix.
