ABSTRACT
Appendiceal cystadenoma is a rare neoplasm, with an incidence of 0.2% to 0.3% among all appendectomies; this condition predominates in female patients and its presentation is unspecific in terms of symptoms, which can be compared to acute appendicitis, an abdominal mass, obstructive or gynecological symptoms, or urological manifestations, which are the least frequent. We present a 59-year-old female patient with an abdominal pain over 4 months located in the right iliac fossa; several complementary tests were performed such as a diagnostic laparoscopy, an exploratory laparotomy and an appendectomy. After these examinations, a histological diagnosis of appendiceal mucinous cystadenoma was made.REFERENCES
