Primary carcinoma of the vermiform appendix is a rare neoplasm, and its treatment strategy has not yet been established. We retrospectively analyzed 8 cases of primary carcinoma of the vermiform appendix from 2007 to 2017. Six cases were male and two were female, with a median age of 60.5 years. Ileocecal resection and right hemicolectomy were performed in 7 cases and 1 case, respectively. Regarding pathological staging, 5 cases were of pStage Ⅱ, 2 were of pStage Ⅲa, and 1 was of pStage Ⅳ. Three cases had recurrences after curative resection. The postoperative median overall survival time was 45 months. Three cases with a tumor diameter of 20mm were alive without any recurrence; however, 3 of 5 cases with a tumor diameter of B21mm had recurrences. Although only 1 of 3 cases with adjuvant chemotherapy(pStage Ⅲa case)had recurrence, 2 of 4 cases without adjuvant chemotherapy, including a pStage Ⅱ case, had recurrences. Early diagnosis, surgery, and adjuvant chemotherapy could improve the long-term outcomes of patients with primary carcinoma of the vermiform appendix.
