CT manifestations of peritoneal carcinomatosis
American Journal of Roentgenology, 1988Seventy-three abdominopelvic contrast-enhanced CT scans obtained in 60 patients with peritoneal tumor spread were reviewed retrospectively to determine the CT signs of peritoneal malignancy. Ascites was present in 54 studies (74%) and was the most common CT finding. Loculation of the fluid occurred in 25 (46%) of these.

Surgery for colorectal peritoneal carcinomatosis
Scandinavian Journal of Gastroenterology, 2012Peritoneal carcinomatosis occurs in patients with advanced gastrointestinal and gynecological malignancies and also in patients who experience recurrence after treatment failure of the primary tumor. Malignant disease in the peritoneal cavity is a morbid and significant predictor of a diminished survival in a cancer patient. Systemic chemotherapy alone

Laparoscopy in the Management of Peritoneal Carcinomatosis
The Cancer Journal, 2009The use of videolaparoscopy in the assessment of peritoneal carcinomatosis extent is now universally accepted. This procedure allows us to define with certainty the origin of the neoplasm, the peritoneal cancer index (PCI), the involvement of the small bowel and its mesentery, the feasibility of surgery and the index of attainable cytoreduction, the ...

Peritoneal carcinomatosis in refractory seminoma
International Journal of Urology, 2004Abstract Intraperitoneal metastasis from a testicular germ cell tumor is very rare. We report a case in a 33‐year‐old man who was referred to Hokkaido University Hospital, Hokkaido, Japan, for further therapy for refractory seminoma. Physical examination revealed abdominal distension as a result of ascites, and cytology of the ascites showed seminoma ...

Searching for the primitive tumor of a peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) is no easy task even considering the multiple modern diagnostic procedures at our disposal. Without the primary site of a neoplasm it is often difficult to establish the prognosis and a treatment regimen.

Peritoneal carcinomatosis in mouse models
Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PCa) represents a metastatic stage of a disease with unmet therapeutic options. Malignant cells from primary tumors (gastrointestinal or gynecologic malignancies) invade the peritoneal cavity and eventually seed onto peritoneal surfaces, with the omentum being the most common nest area.Leire, Arrizabalaga +8 more
