Incidental detection of appendiceal mucocele during colonoscopy: A case report

Early and accurate preoperative diagnosis is critical for guiding surgical management, as it helps prevent rupture and ensures the selection of the most appropriate surgical approach, minimizing the risk of further complications.

Abstract

Given the potential complications, appendiceal mucocele should be included in the differential diagnosis once more common causes of abdominal pain are excluded. Early and accurate preoperative diagnosis is critical for guiding surgical management, as it helps prevent rupture and ensures the selection of the most appropriate surgical approach, minimizing the risk of further complications.
