Abstract:
Appendix, considered a vestigial and disposable organ, has been long neglected as a source of abdominal tumors. Among the appendiceal tumors, goblet cell adenocarcinoma (GCA) is a rare primary epithelial neoplasm which has undergone multiple name changes and classifications in recent years, adding to confusion surrounding this unique amphicrine tumor. This entity was previously known as goblet cell carcinoid and adenocarcinoma ex goblet cell carcinoid. This review article provides an update on pathology, nomenclature, and recent classification systems with emphasis on 2019 World Health Organization Classification of Tumors, 3-tiered grading system.1.
