[A Case Report of Appendiceal Cancer Complicated Appendicitis Treated with Single-Incision Laparoscopic Ileocecal Resection].

We report a case of appendicitis with an abscess that was treated with single-incision laparoscopic ileocecal resection with D2 lymphadenectomy because of intraoperative suspicion of appendiceal cancer. A 73-year-old woman was admitted to the hospital because of right lower abdominal pain. She was diagnosed with appendicitis with an abscess. Although single-incision laparoscopic appendectomy was planned, appendiceal cancer was suspected from intraoperative findings. Therefore, we performed single-incision laparoscopic ileocecal resection with D2 lymphadenectomy. The pathological result was moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma in the appendix. Because of the high risk of fStage II appendiceal cancer, adjuvant chemotherapy was administered. Neither recurrence nor metastasis have been detected 7 months after surgery.
