Abstract
Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms are rare and can be easily misdiagnosed as adnexal masses. Fertility is a concern in cases requiring cytoreductive surgery involving the ovaries and if hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy is considered. We present the case of a 35-year-old patient with primary infertility who was suspected to have a hematosalpinx on ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) but was found to have an appendiceal mucinous neoplasm on laparoscopy. Fertility preservation was offered to this patient. Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients in their reproductive years presenting with adnexal masses. Fertility preservation should be discussed with these patients, especially when gonadotoxic treatments are planned.
