Özet
Semptomların ve radyolojik bulguların spesifik olmaması, nadir gözlenmesi ve detaylı anamneze rağmen akla gelmemesi nedeniyle Gossipiboma'nın tanısı zordur. Biz bu vaka ile atipik karın ağrılarında özellikle geçirilmiş operasyon öyküsü olanlarda ameliyattan uzun süre geçse bile gossipibomanın akılda tutulmasını vurgulamak istedik.
