Abstract
Appendiceal mucocele is an appendicular dilation secondary to intraluminal accumulation of mucosal material. Appropriate preoperative diagnosis and surgical resection remain the standard treatment. Here we present the case of a female patient in her third decade who came to the emergency room due to abdominal pain, with a tomography suggestive of appendiceal mucocele, for which she underwent surgery and a conventional appendectomy was performed without complications. The histopathological examination demonstrated simple appendiceal mucocele. without neoplastic activity, at follow-up in one year without recurrences.
