DOI: 10.1016/j.amjsurg.2021.12.003
Abstract: BACKGROUND The discovery of a low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) during appendectomy is a rare scenario. These neoplasms can progress to pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP), however the incidence of progression is not well known. METHODS… read more here.

Abstract: Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs) can occur concurrently with appendiceal sessile serrated lesions (SSLs). To interrogate relatedness, we performed multigene and immunohistochemical characterizations of paired and unpaired SSLs and LAMNs. We evaluated 62 serrated lesions… read more here.

Abstract: Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs) are neoplastic lesions with potential progression to pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). In most cases, diagnosis is made because of suspected acute appendicitis or incidentally by computed tomography (CT). However, incidental diagnosis… read more here.
