Abstract

Abstract Despite the fact that the appendix is one of the rarest anatomic localization of neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) in the digestive system, the appendicular neuroendocrine tumour (A-NET) remains among the most common tumours of the appendix. The A-NET usually presents as a small solitary lesion revealed only after pathological examination of appendix that has been surgically removed for acute appendicitis. Only 18 papers in the Pubmed database (1965-2012) are dedicated to A-NET in pregnancy. Here we present a well-documented case of A-NET in a pregnant lady.
