Overview
Pseudomyxoma peritonei is an uncommon tumor known for its production of abundant mucinous tumor spreading in the peritoneal cavity, tumor origin is mainly appendiceal neoplasm but it can arise from ovarian or colon cancer as well. The mainstay of therapy is cytoreduction surgery with chemotherapeutics infusion. On 1884, Werth described the term pseudomyxoma peritonei and its association with a mucinous tumor of the ovary.
Historical Perspective
- On 1841, Carl F. Rokitansky described the first case of pseudomyxoma peritonei. [1]
- On 1901, Frankel reported the first case of appendiceal tumor.[2]
