Abstract

Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMN) are rarely seen. They are incidentally detected during an appendectomy for appendicitis. Treatment is appendectomy in low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms. Those having adverse features based on the appendix, lymph node metastasis, and tumour size greater than 2 cm, appendectomy with hemicolectomy is done. We present a rare case report of appendiceal neoplasm diagnosed with low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) managed by appendectomy with right hemicolectomy.
