Omental infarction is an uncommon cause of acute abdomen in the pediatric population. We report a case of a 4-year-old male child with right iliac fossa pain. The final diagnosis was made on ultrasound and computed tomography findings. This entity needs to be differentiated from acute conditions like appendicitis, avoiding surgery.

The perineural spread of the cancer through the lumbosacral plexus gives an appearance of 'trident sign' on contrast-enhanced CT scan and MRI. It is associated with adverse survival rates and carries a poor prognostic value.
