We present a rare case of a carcinoid tumor of the appendix that was diagnosed during pregnancy in a 24-year-old female. The patient was admitted to our department for acute abdominal pain localized on the right half of the abdomen, mimicking acute appendicitis. Open appendectomy was carried out and at the histological examination carcinoid was found in the surgical specimen. Only few similar cases were found in the literature reporting appendiceal carcinoid tumor during pregnancy.
