The appendiceal stump refers to the remnant of the appendix that remains after an appendectomy. In the context of colon health, it is usually not associated with cancer; however, there is a rare possibility of developing appendiceal stump carcinoma, a type of cancer that can arise in this remnant. Regular monitoring and follow-up may be necessary if there are concerns about changes in the stump. Always consult a healthcare professional for personalized advice and assessment.
