Clinical Pathological Analysis of Appendiceal Neoplasms From 4800 Appendectomy Specimens

Background Appendiceal Neoplasms are relatively uncommon. Although Carcinoid tumor is the most prevalent tumor of appendix, mucinous tumors and metastatic tumors can also be identified in appendectomy specimens after careful pathologic examination. Objectives The main goal of this study is the...
