Abstract
•
Appendiceal mucocele defines as an intraluminal dilation of the appendix in response to mucin accumulation.
•
This condition overall is very rare with a 0.2–0.3% incidence of all appendectomy specimens.
•
It's more common in the females with a 4 to 1 ratio.
•
Appropriate diagnosis and management of appendiceal mucocele prevent complications such as pseudomyxoma peritonei.
