| Abstract: | GM, a 67-year-old female, was referred after an appendiceal mucocoele which had been noted and removed during a total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral oophorectomy (TAH-BSO) was diagnosed on histopathology as being a mucinous cystadenocarcinoma. The patient presented with no signs or symptoms. The patient subsequently underwent a laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and is being followed up at surgical outpatients yearly to exclude recurrence of the malignancy. |
