ABSTRACT

Appendix cancer is a rare pathological entity, where the majority of diagnoses are derived from an incidental finding after appendecto-mies. Due to being little known, the treatment prevails controversial. Since 2000, there has been an increase in incidence, which is why it is a pathology of importance for study according to trends in its behavior.
