| Core Tip |
Appendiceal mucinous epithelial neoplasms are rare but clinically significant tumors with heterogeneous behavior and frequent nonspecific presentation, often leading to delayed diagnosis. Their major complication is pseudomyxoma peritonei, caused by mucin dissemination within the peritoneal cavity. Imaging plays a central role in detection, characterization, and staging: Computed tomography is the diagnostic cornerstone, while magnetic resonance imaging provides superior assessment of peritoneal disease. Recognizing key imaging features is essential for appropriate classification, prognostic stratification, and guiding multidisciplinary management. |
