Blunt abdominal trauma causing intraperitoneal injury and/or bleeding can be life-threatening, requiring immediate intervention. Diagnosing these cases can be challenging, especially when pre-existing conditions are involved.

Article Synopsis
- Appendiceal cancers, particularly mucinous cystadenocarcinoma, are rare and can cause serious complications like pseudomyxoma peritonei, leading to abdominal fluid accumulation called "jelly belly."
- A case of a young man with a persistent psoas abscess revealed mucinous adenocarcinoma with pseudomyxoma retroperitonei, emphasizing the need to consider malignancy in atypical abscesses.
- Early and accurate diagnosis is critical because these types of tumors can be misdiagnosed as common issues like abscesses, highlighting the importance of imaging and colonoscopy in identifying them.

Sydney Women's Endosurgery Centre (SWEC), St George Hospital, Sydney, NSW, Australia.
Objective: We aimed to explore the abnormal pathology findings in appendix specimens removed based on intraoperative abnormal appearance during elective surgery for benign gynaecological conditions by a minimally invasive gynaecologist, as well as the associated complication rate.
Materials And Methods: This retrospective cohort study was conducted in a tertiary referral surgical centre for benign gynaecological conditions between the years 2004-2023. It included patients who underwent appendicectomy by a trained minimally invasive gynaecologist based on observations during surgery for benign gynaecological conditions.
