#934 Neuroendocrine Tumors of The Appendix: A Study of Presentation, Investigation and Management

Introduction: Causes of appendicitis include infection, inflammatory bowel disease, faecoliths and neoplasm. Rarer causes of obstruction, such as neoplasm, may present in an identical manner to common causes, such as infection, and remain undiagnosed without histologcal analysis of appendicaecal tissue. Neuroendocrine tumors of the appendix are most commonly detected incidentally by histological analysis of appendicaecal tissue following appendicectomy.
