"Considerable controversy still exists on mucinous neoplasms of the appendix pathologic classification and nomenclature 3. According to a panel of specialist review in 2016, a new nomenclature and classification for the appendiceal mucinous neoplasms based on their histologic type and biologic behaviour has been proposed, which now includes the “high-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm”. The HAMN was proposed to include the lesions that have high-grade atypia and thus cannot be grouped as a LAMN, but also do not have the infiltrative invasion to be characterised as an appendiceal mucinous adenocarcinoma 1,2."
