Peritoneal mesothelioma is a rare neoplasm often related to previous asbestos exposure. In 14 cases the diagnosis before surgery was virtually impossible, as patients presented with vague abdominal complaints and nonspecific physical examination findings. Laboratory testing (including computed tomography) was of no added diagnostic help.

Archives of Surgery, 1989To the Editor .—The discussion of management of peritoneal mesothelioma by Plaus 1 is good but incomplete.

The use of a peritoneovenous shunt is not without risk, and with it or without it other approaches may ...
