Laparoscopic Ileocecal Resection

Two and more types of tumors rarely occur in the appendix, a constrained space of the human body. We experienced a rare co-occurrence of schwannoma and low-grade mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) in the appendix and obtained a lesson to scrutinize the radiological images in the follow-up period. A computer tomography (CT) performed for surveillance of bile duct stone of a 68-year-old man incidentally detected the appendiceal tumor, which characteristics were not clear at that time, 1-year before admission because of epigastric pain due to acute cholecystitis. CT showed enlargement of tumor in the appendix, and laparoscopic ileocecal resection and cholecystectomy were performed under the diagnosis of acute cholecystectomy and appendiceal tumor. Histopathological examination revealed two types of appendiceal tumors, schwannoma and low-grade appendiceal neoplasm. To the best of our knowledge, co-occurrence of schwannoma and LAMN has never been reported and this complicated our interpretation of clinical images during the course. We report a clinical lesson in handling this rare combination of tumors in the appendix with the relevant literature.

Abstract A mucocele refers to an appendix that has dilated due to progressive accumulation of mucus within its lumen. Appendiceal mucocele is a rare cause of an acute abdomen. They represent 0.2-0.7% of all appendix specimens. LAMN account for less than 0.3% of appendicectomy specimens.  We present a 38 year old man with an acute RIF’s pain who went on to have CT scan which revealed a mucocele of appendix but did not show any features of perforation or pseudomyxoma peritonei. He had a laparoscopic converted to open appendicectomy. The proximal 2 cm of appendix was oedematous but normal calibre. Histology revealed a low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) that was completely excised.  The mucocele of the appendix was first described by Rokitansky in 1842. Appendix mucocele may come as a consequence of obstructive or inflammatory processes, cystadenomas or cystadenocarcinomas. Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms commonly presents in the sixth decade of life and our patient was much younger in comparison. Several literatures suggest the value of preoperative CT imaging in obtaining diagnosis and also in planning further treatment. Appendicectomy or a right hemicolectomy is treatment of choice based on presence or absence of following factors 1. Perforated mucocele 2. Involvement of the base of the appendix. 3. Positive lymph nodes of mesoappendix and ileocolic. Patients with malignancy or pseudomyxoma peritonei are likely to require cytoreductive surgery, heated intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy, early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
