The appendectomy was performed. The gross appearance of the appendix was of a slight catarrhal appendicitis, with no sign of a tumor, but the tip of the appendix was perforated. The histopathological examination revealed a carcinoid tumor on the tip of the appendix. No vascular or perineural invasion was seen. Conclusions: The appendectomy is enough for carcinoid tumors of the tip of the appendix, of small sizes, without vascular or perineural invasion.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Annals of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine}, author={Sharma, Sujan and Makaju, Ramesh and Rajbhandari, Nripesh}, year={2015}, month={Oct.}, pages={44–45} }
