No, it is found in the right lower quadrant.
RLQ

The appendix is normally found in the RLQ (right lower quadrant), but can be found in other places. I have seen it near the liver and in the middle lower area of the abdomen, above the bladder. These are all variations of normal and usually cause no problem at all.

This addition has information that is relevant to the text but not focused on the topic of the text.

If cancer is found in the appendix, it is usually a tumor called "carcinoid". Carcinoid can (uncommonly) spread beyond the appendix, often to the liver. Stuart Scott had a tumor found in his appendix 3 years ago, so most likely this is carcinoid.
