Double tumours of the appendix: a rare entity. A case report

S Sjövall et al. Acta Chir Scand. 1985.

Abstract

A 73-year-old man was admitted with the suspicion of appendiceal abscess. Emergency appendectomy was done. Histology revealed two tumours, an adenocarcinoma and a carcinoid. Tumours of the appendix are seldom diagnosed preoperatively and often first at microscopic examination. All specimens should therefore be histologically examined.
