On examination, the patient was afebrile and hemodynamically stable. However, a tenderness of the lower right quadrant and high-pitched bowel sounds were revealed. Laboratory test results showed a leukocytosis with a white blood cell count of 20 900/μL (to convert to ×109/L, multiply by 0.001) (normal, <10 500/μL) and an elevated C-reactive protein level of 16.7 mg/L (to convert to nanomoles per liter, multiply by 9.524) (normal, <5 mg/L) while the liver function test results were normal.
