title: [Mucinous cystadenoma of the appendix].
abstract: A 63-year old female patient was admitted with a unclear abdominal ultrasound scan. Despite all our diagnostic examinations, the diagnosis--mucinous cystadenoma--was first established during surgery by intraoperative histological evaluation. We discuss the diagnostic possibilities and therapeutic approach.
