Low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm

Abstract

Tumors of the appendix are uncommon entities that comprise less than 2% of all appendectomies with an approximately 0.3% reported prevalence of mucinous neoplasm in the appendectomy specimens. We report a case of low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm in a 51-year-old female that was presented as lower abdominal pain. The case was managed by laparoscopic resection.
