... e study done in a tertiary care hospital. We studied clinical presentations of 21 cases along with the histopathological study of respective appendectomy specimens . Results: Out of 21 cases, 3 (14.28%) cases were serrated polyp, 9 cases (42.85%) were Low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN), 3 cases (14.28%) were high grade appendiceal neoplasm (HAMN) and 6 (28.57%) cases were mucinous adenocarcinoma.
