This report documents 2 cases of obstructive mucocele of the appendix secondary to endometriosis of the appendix. In 1 case, the tip of the mucocele was ruptured and associated with localized pseudomyxoma peritonei. Mucoceles of the appendix usually are associated with hyperplastic or neoplastic mucosal proliferation; obstruction, particularly that due to endometriosis, is an infrequent cause. Occurrence of localized pseudomyxoma peritonei associated with appendiceal endometriosis and mucocele has not been reported previously.
本报告记录了2例阑尾子宫内膜异位继发的阑尾阻塞性黏液囊肿。其中1例黏液囊肿顶端破裂，并伴有局限性腹膜假黏液瘤。阑尾黏液囊肿通常与增生性或肿瘤性黏膜增殖有关；梗阻，尤其是由子宫内膜异位引起的梗阻，是一种罕见的原因。此前尚未报道过与阑尾子宫内膜异位和黏液囊肿相关的局限性腹膜假黏液瘤的发生情况。
