Which of the following signs is characterized by pain at McBurney's point on internal rotation of the flexed right hip?

A. Rovsing's sign
B. Obturator sign

Explanation

The Obturator sign is elicited by internal rotation of the flexed right hip, which stretches the obturator internus muscle.

Rovsing's sign is RIF pain on palpation of the LIF.
