Abstract
A 30-year old man presented with symptoms and signs of acute appendicitis. Abdominal imaging via ultrasound and computed tomography detected a mass in the right iliac fossa. Exploratory laparotomy revealed an appendiceal mass and gelatinous peritoneal fluid, while histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of pseudomyxoma peritonei arising from a mucocele of the appendix and attributed to an appendiceal cystadenocarcinoma. The clinical and imaging findings of this rare case are herein presented.
