Low-grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasm (LAMN): Description of an uncommon entity by Babatope Lanre Awosusi in Journal of Clinical Case Reports Medical Images and Health Sciences
Background: Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) is an uncommon tumor of the appendix with attendant risk of serious complications.1 It can present with abdominal pain and distention, vomiting, a palpable mass, intestinal obstruction, weight loss, and sometimes intussusception. Other uncommon forms of presentation include hematuria, ureteral obstruction, hydronephrosis, and urinary tract infection.1
Case presentation: A 47-year-old female presented with three days of constant dull right upper and lower quadrant abdominal pain associated with nausea, vomiting, and bloating. She had a similar episode two months prior with intermittent right lower quadrant pain, nausea, and vomiting for two days. There was associated low-grade fever. On examination, she had mild tenderness in the right lower quadrant with no guarding or rebound tenderness. Laboratory investigations showed only leukocytosis. Computed tomography scan of the abdomen done revealed a dilated fluid-filled appendix measuring 1.8 cm in diameter. Laparoscopic appendectomy was done and histopathological examination of the specimen showed features consistent with a low-grade mucinous neoplasm of the appendix with acellular mucin dissecting the muscularis and serosa. Histology did not show peritoneal spread but patient still had post-operative clinical and radiologic follow-up with no adverse event reported.
Conclusion: Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms are lesions of the appendix that can rupture and lead to pseudomyxoma peritonei with risk of mortality. If it is confined to the appendix, surgical management will suffice with clinical follow-up and imaging if the margins involve acellular mucin or neoplastic epitheli.

My sister had surgery to remove an appendix, an ovary and stray endometriosis.
Histology shows a little bit of mucoid cancer in her appendix. That is quite rare.
Her update in her own words:
Met with my oncologist. He ordered a CT scan and cancer marker test. I will undergo laparoscopic diagnostic and HIPEC (heated chemo cocktail shaker) procedures.
Laparoscopic diagnostic to check for more LAMN.
HIPEC to remove any stray LAMN cells.
He was very good at explaining LAMN (low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm). LAMN spreads as mucin (snot) in the abdomen. Damn LAMN.
Some people have so much mucin that they appear pregnant.
Long story short ****y has a little LAMN”🎶🎵

Stomach Cancer – What It Is, Causes, Symptoms and Treatment
The Cancer stomach or stomach cancer is not a common disease. In addition, stomach cancer is a malignant neoplasm of the stomach mucosa , also called gastric carcinoma.
Simply put, a neoplasm is a cellular alteration that leads to exaggerated cell growth, in which cells partially or totally lose their ability to distinguish themselves.
This happens in the mucosa, tissue that covers the inside of…
