Core Tip	With the popularization of the concept of minimally invasive surgery and in-depth research on the function of the appendix, methods for preserving the appendix have emerged, and endoscopic diagnosis and treatment of appendiceal diseases have gradually become the first-line treatments. We summarize the current state of colonoscopic management of appendiceal disease, with an emphasis on reconsideration of the function of the appendix and endoscopic treatment. We also put forward our own views on how to improve the diagnosis and treatment of appendiceal diseases.
