Imaging of Peritoneal Carcinomatosis
The Cancer Journal, 2009Imaging studies are crucial in the evaluation of patients with suspected or known peritoneal cancerous dissemination. Despite the major progress that has occurred in radiological technology in the last few years, adequate and early detection of peritoneal surface disease remains a challenge.

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

Radiology of peritoneal carcinomatosis
1996In summary, the radologic appearance of peritoneal carcinomatosis and sarcomatosis is best understood with a thorough knowledge of the natural history of the disease. Computed tomography (CT) examinations of the abdomen and pelvis are insensitive to small volumes (< 5 cm) of diffuse peritoneal seeding.

MRI manifestations of peritoneal carcinomatosis
Gastrointestinal Radiology, 1992Three cases of proved peritoneal carcinomatosis were examined by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Air was used to distend the entire gastrointestinal tract via an antegrade method. The findings included seedings along the small intestine, transverse and sigmoid colon, stellate pattern in the mesentery, plaque-like and bulky tumor masses in 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.
