ABSTRACT
The retrospective study presented in this article was realized on a series of 22 cases of mucus secreting tumor of the appendix compiled among 8373 appendicectomies. The clinical picture was dominated by an appendiceal syndrome (73%). The diagnosis was made pre or peroperatively in 10 cases and it was only with to the systematic anatomopathologic exam that 12 other cases were discovered. The histological study of the appendectomy piece showed a retention mucocele (12 cases), a mucosal hyperplasia (8 cases) and a cystadenoma (2 cases). For 5 patients, the diagnosis of peritoneal pseudomyxoma (4 cases) or extraperitoneal (1 case) was retained. All the patients underwent an appendicectomy, associated to an evacuation of the peritoneal gelatinous ascites for 5 patients among whom two underwent in more an omentectomie. Two cases of recurrence were recorded 5 months later.
