Abstract: | Primary mucus secreting adenocarcinoma of the appendix is a rare finding, one in 2500 cases of intestinal malignancies. This is a report of a young man with vague abdominal symptoms for about two years followed by appendicitis. Interval appendectomy revealed a neoplasm of the appendix. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of mucus secreting adenocarcinoma and right hemicolectomy was done. |
