Comprehensive Treatment of a Case of Recurrent Peritoneal Metastatic Appendiceal Mucinous Adenocarcinoma
Abstract：Appendiceal tumors are extremely rare gastrointestinal tumors. They are difficult to diagnose preoperatively and are easily missed or misdiagnosed. Most are confirmed by surgical pathology. The incidence is approximately 0.12 per 100,000 people per year, accounting for about 0.4% of all gastrointestinal tumors [1]. Appendiceal mucinous adenocarcinoma accounts for an even smaller proportion, approximately 15% of all appendiceal tumors [2]. Peritoneal metastasis is the most common mode of metastasis for appendiceal tumors, and the presence or absence of peritoneal metastasis is one of the important factors affecting the treatment strategy and prognosis of appendiceal tumors [3]. This article summarizes the treatment experience of a typical case of appendiceal mucinous adenocarcinoma that developed peritoneal metastasis 1.5 years after surgery, which may provide more basis for clinical treatment.
