- Abstract
The article presents consensus guidelines on the management of patients with well-differentiated tumour of the appendix and goblet cell carcinoma. It discusses the epidemiology and clinicopathological features of these tumours. It is reported that a patient with the disorder may present with pain in the right lower abdomen or right testis, and while most of these tumours are diagnosed incidentally, they are not closely related to a specific clinical presentation. It also describes the prognosis of appendiceal endocrine tumours according to size.
