Core Tip Signet ring cell carcinoma (SRCC) of the appendix is a rare malignant tumor, which accounts for only about 2.3% of all malignant tumors of the digestive system and 0.42% of all malignant tumors. Because of the rarity of SRCC, it is important to study its clinicopathologic features, diagnosis, and treatment methods in depth to improve patient outcomes. This case report reports an extremely rare case of SRCC of the appendix with metastases in the terminal ileum. It demonstrates the diagnosis and treatment process of this rare disease, emphasizes the importance of improving alertness to rare diseases in clinical practice, and the necessity of thorough intraoperative exploration and rapid pathological examination, which helps to more accurately determine the condition, avoid unnecessary secondary surgeries, and ensure that patients are optimally treated.
