Overview
Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare condition consisting of intraperitoneal mucinous tumors and ascites, most commonly arising from mucinous tumors of the appendix and less commonly from ovary and colon. Pseudomyxoma peritonei symptoms include abdominal distention, bloating, hernia, and infertility. It is a very uncommon tumor with an incidence of 0.1 people per 100,000 per year, slightly more common in the female gender with a median age of 50 years at the time of diagnosis. Prognosis is good in general. Pseudomyxoma peritonei is histologically classified into disseminated peritoneal adenomucinosis (DPAM), peritoneal mucinous carcinomatosis (PMCA). Mainstay of treatment is cytoreduction surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemoperfusion (HIPEC).
Medical Therapy
Mainstay of treatment for pseudomyxoma peritonei is cytoreductive surgery combined with intraperitoneal chemotherapy with mitomycin at 42°C.[1][2][3]
