Abstract
A 56 year old woman was admitted to our hospital with a 9-year history of recurrent, lower abdominal pain and mucoid vaginal discharge 20 ye ars after an appendiceal uterine transplantation. The removal of the u terus and the attached appendix resulted in the disappearance of the s ymptoms, A mechanism linking the appendiceal mucoid discharge with abd ominal pain in this menopausal patient is suggested.
