Perforated Appendix

Appendix is the most common site of occurrence for a goblet cell carcinoid tumor. A diagnosis of an appendiceal goblet cell carcinoid is made in retrospect the majority of the time. These tumors are best treated with a right hemicolectomy and adjuvant therapies tailored according to the presence or absence of residual disease. Presentation as a perforated appendix is seen in 16% of these tumors. The natural history and the ideal management strategy in such a scenario are not well described. In those with peritoneal spread cytoreductive surgery with HIPEC (hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy) offers the best disease-free and progression-free survival. Close follow-up with cross-sectional imaging helps in identifying recurrences at the earliest. Multimodality management involving patient participation in every aspect of care accomplishes high-value care in the treatment of these tumors.

The Right

Adenocarcinoma ex-goblet carcinoid (ADA ex-GCC) is a rare and aggressive subtype of goblet cell carcinoid, a distinct tumor of the appendix characterized by both neuroendocrine and glandular differentiation. Patients often present with chronic abdominal pain or symptoms of acute appendicitis. Right hemicolectomy is the primary mode of treatment, and prophylactic salpingo-oophorectomy and hysterectomy is recommended in post-menopausal women due to the tumor’s propensity of transcoelemic spread, especially to the ovaries. In this case report, we describe a patient with ADA ex-GCC who was found to have oligometastic disease in the pelvis and treated with hypofractionated stereotactic body radiation therapy (HSRT). She initially underwent a right hemicolectomy followed by adjuvant capecitabine four years prior when her tumor was incidentally discovered on colonoscopy. She subsequently had a salpingo-oophorectomy for gynecologic tract metastatic disease and declined further chemotherapy. The patient was again discovered to have oligometastatic disease in the right pelvis adjacent to the rectum on a Gallium-68 dotatate PET/MRI, and was subsequently treated with HSRT to 39 Gy in 6.5 Gy daily fractions. The patient tolerated her radiation course without notable radiation-related toxicity, and she remains without disease progression nine months later.

Gastrointestinal Neoplasm

The involvement of the appendix by lymphomas, both primarily or secondarily, is extremely rare; primary lymphomas account for less than 0.02% of gastrointestinal neoplasm. We present the rare case of a patient who debuts with low gastrointestinal bleeding as the main symptom. Colonoscopy found an extra mucosal tumour on the posterior aspect of the ceccum and bleeding from the appendicular orifice. Primary appendicular tumour is confirmed on multislice computed tomography and laparoscopic right hemicolectomy is performed. The patient had an uneventful postoperative course and was discharged on the 6th postoperative day. The pathology report shows a infiltration of the cecal appendix by grade 2 follicular lymphoma.
