Abstract
Mucocele of the appendix is rare and mainly found incidentally at surgery or autopsy. Clinically, this tumor is known to cause pseudomyxoma peritonei or intussusception in adults. We present a case of adult intussusception with a leading mass of appendiceal mucocele. Computed tomography was useful in resolving the nature of the leading mass.Entities:
