الوصف: Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMNs) are rare and heterogeneous diseases that, despite their increased incidence, are well differentiated, tend to be painless, and histologically lack distinctive invasive features without infiltrative growth, destructive infiltration, or associated pro-fibroproliferative responses. However, the biological behaviour of these tumours is difficult to determine preoperatively or intraoperatively, and the possibility of rupture puts patients at risk for peritoneal pseudomucinous neoplasms (PMPs).Patients with low-grade appendiceal mucinous tumours and peritoneal pseudomucinous tumours experience slow disease progression and are incurable and have a high risk of recurrence, morbidity, and ultimately death, despite the reported 5- and 10-year survival rates of 50–86% and 45–68%, respectively. In this article, we report the case of a 80-year-old male with a giant low-grade appendiceal mucinous tumour associated with a peritoneal pseudomucinous tumour, and discuss the diagnostic and management strategies for giant low-grade appendiceal mucinous tumours in the context of a literature review.
