AB  - BACKGROUND: Although primer appendagitis epiploica (PAE) is an acute condition, 
      there is no consensus about a standard first-choice treatment. Different 
      non-surgical and surgical interventions for PAE are available. METHODS: In this 
      study, a total of 39 patients who were diagnosed as PAE between 2013-2018 were 
      evaluated retrospectively concerning recurrences of the disease, medical 
      intervention, and the requirement of hospitalization. USG and abdominal CT were 
      used as diagnostic tools. Patients were also evaluated for a one-month and 
      long-term follow-up. RESULTS: Of the 39 patients, 29 were male and 10 were 
      female. Recurrence was seen in three patients at the earliest six months. These 
      patients responded to medical treatment. CONCLUSION: Accurate diagnosis with the 
      help of developing imaging methods has made non-surgical treatment a viable 
      option in the treatment of PAE.
