Molecular Profiling of Low‐Grade Appendiceal Mucinous Neoplasms (LAMN)
Genes, Chromosomes and Cancer, Volume 63, Issue 10, October 2024.ABSTRACT Low‐grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasia (LAMN) represents a relatively rare tumor of the appendix typically diagnosed incidentally through appendectomy for acute appendicitis. In cases where perforation occurs, mucinous content may disseminate into the abdominal cavity, leading to the development of pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP).
