Mucocele of appendix is a rare disorder characterised by obstructive dilatation of the appendicular lumen by mucinous secretions. More commonly it is caused by mucinous cystadenoma and rarely by mucinous cystadenocarcinoma. Patients are often asymptomatic and may sometimes present with acute appendicitis. It is known to be associated with pseudomyxoma peritonei as a result of rupture of mucocel...
INTRODUCTION Torsion of the vermiform appendix is a rare disorder, which causes abdominal symptoms indistinguishable from acute appendicitis and is found by chance during the laparotomy. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case (a 76-year-old male) suffering of torsion of the vermiform appendix with fecalith. It was twisted 540 degrees in an anti-clockwise direction. Appendectomy was done. CONCLU...
Mucinous neoplasms of the appendix are a heterogeneous group of neoplasms ranging from simple mucoceles to complex pseudomyxoma peritonei. Considerable controversy exists on their pathologic classification and nomenclature. Clear understanding of the histopathologic diversity of these neoplasms helps in establishing proper communication between the radiologist, the pathologist and the surgeon. ...
Small bowel obstruction is a common cause of an emergency admission in the surgical wards. Acute appendicitis presenting with small bowel obstruction due to appendiceal knotting is a very rare and unsuspected condition in an emergency scenario. We report a case of acute small bowel obstruction in a 26-year-old male who, on exploration was found to have small bowel strangulation due to appendice...
PURPOSE To review the diagnostic examination and clinical presentation of mucinous cystadenoma of the appendix. METHODS Case report from experience at an Air Force tertiary care hospital in a 66-year-old woman with chronic right lower quadrant pain. RESULTS After extensive preoperative evaluation and subsequent diagnostic laparoscopy, a right hemicolectomy was performed for a mucinous cysta...
INTRODUCTION Endometriosis is occasionally found in the appendix, particularly in severe forms of deep infiltrating disease. Carcinoid tumor is the most common neoplasm of the appendix and may be overlooked or misdiagnosed when there are multiple endometriosis lesions in the pelvis. CASE DESCRIPTION We describe two cases of carcinoid tumor diagnosed in patients who underwent surgery to treat ...
Appendiceal mucocele is a rare entity which is characterized by cystic dilatation due to abnormal accumulation of mucus in the lumen of the appendix. Patients are often diagnosed incidentally by abdominal screening or abdominal surgery for other causes. Pain in the right lower quadrant of the abdomen, which may present as acute or chronic appendicitis, is the most common symptom of appendix muc...
Four cases are reported, in whom radiologically opaque appendiceal coproliths (appendicoliths) were recognised on plain abdominal radiographs. These were undertaken for diagnostic purposes, in patients with right-sided abdominal pain, in whom the diagnosis was not immediately apparent. The pathology, radiological features, and clinical significance of the phenomenon are discussed, and the assoc...
The study presented two cases of synchronous occurrence of colon and appendiceal adenocarcinoma. Both patients required surgical intervention, due to acute peritonitis during the course of acute appendicitis. In case of one patient we performed abdominal CT confirming the presence of sigmoid cancer. The patient was subjected to appendectomy and Hartmann's operation. The second patient underwent...
