Complete appendiceal intussusception and appendiceal mucinous tumor: A case report and review of literature
Plain abdominal computed tomography may underestimate the presence of CAI and appendiceal mucinous tumor, whereas CECT significantly improves diagnostic accuracy. Preoperative suspicion of appendiceal malignancy should be entertained in cases of CAI. In the absence of definitive biopsy results, intraoperative frozen section analysis is recommended to guide radical resection.
