Pseudomyxoma peritonei extending to the lower extremity: a case report

Pseudomyxoma peritonei is characterized by mucinous ascites originating from a mucin-producing neoplasm; however, even the definition is still under debate. Tumor deposits extend and ultimately engulf the entire cavity, causing death from cachexia due to limited intestinal movement. Here, we report...

description Pseudomyxoma peritonei is characterized by mucinous ascites originating from a mucin-producing neoplasm; however, even the definition is still under debate. Tumor deposits extend and ultimately engulf the entire cavity, causing death from cachexia due to limited intestinal movement. Here, we report a unique case of an 80-year-old woman with pseudomyxoma peritonei, which extended to the lower extremity mimicking infectious condition. The patient survived for a long time without bowel obstruction despite having the histologic subtype that has an unfavorable prognosis. The extremity lesion was treated with limited extensive surgery. The origin of the disease and the mechanism of extension to the extremity could not be clarified. Clinicians should be aware of the original disease entity and this unusual presentation and determine its mechanism and the best management strategy.
