Overview
Symptoms of pseudomyxoma peritonei include abdominal pain, bloating, abdominal distention, weight changes, and infertility.
History
The median age of diagnosis for pseudomyxoma peritonei is 50 years old, it is usually found incidentally in patients undergoing abdominal surgery or imaging for other medical conditions, most patients are diagnosed with advanced disease due to non specific symptoms of pseudomyxoma peritonei. The clinical presentation of the disease is dependent on the progression of the disease,tumors with appendiceal origin typically presents with appendicitis-like symptoms or if there is ovarian origin,it can present as a pelvic mass due to its compression impact on internal organs. More advanced disease can present with abdominal distension, bowel obstruction, and ascites.[1][2][3]
Symptoms
Symptoms of pseudomyxoma peritonei may include:[2]
- Abdominal or pelvic pain
- New-onset hernia[4]
- Bloating
- Abdominal distension
- Weight change
- Increased abdominal girth.
- Appendicitis-like symptoms in some cases.[5]
- Gynecological complaints in females such as menstrual irregularity due to the ovarian deposits of the mucinous tumor.
- Subcutaneous non tender umbilical nodule have also been reported in rare cases.[6]
