Core Tip	Despite their rarity, appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (AMNs) must be considered and excluded during colonoscopy due to their hazardous complications and malignant potential. Endoscopic ultrasound of the colon to detect AMNs has been challenging due to its limits to the distal colon only. New forward-view echoendoscopes as well as conventional curved linear array echoendoscopes can be utilized for management of these lesions.
