Laparoscopic Right Hemicolectomy for Appendiceal Mucocele

Appendiceal mucocele is a rare disease with an incidence of 0.07–0.63% of all appendectomies and was first described in 1842 by Carl von Rokitansky. It is defined as an abnormal intraluminal accumulation of mucin. The clinical picture of AM can vary from asymptomatic mass in the right lower quadrant...
