Appendicectomy should be performed with care and limited handling of the appendix, with extraction of the specimen through an extraction bag to prevent perforation and spillage of mucin, which can result in the development of pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). This case report aims to shed light on the approach to appendicular mucocele in contemporary medicine. The reported case shows a presentation of mucocele in a young female patient with symptoms compatible with appendicitis. This case report serves as an example of how to diagnose, manage, and follow-up on appendicular mucocele treatment for colleagues who may encounter similar conditions.展开更多

The reported case presents a patient with intestinal subocclusion associated with a pharmacobezoar who had a good evolution with clinical treatment. This case report aims to demonstrate the complexity of diagnostic search, even with the classic version of the disease. And it also comes to show the need for a thorough medical history and differential diagnosis investigation.展开更多
