Human Pathology, 1977
The cytohistology in 82 cases diagnosed as malignant peritoneal mesothelioma was correlated with available clinical and gross pathologic information. The cases were then evaluated as to ceratainty of diagnosis. The material had come from a large number of sources, most of it having been traced by a history of occupational exposure to asbestos.

Congenital peritoneal mesothelioma
Journal of Pediatric Surgery, 1983Only three primary peritoneal mesotheliomas in children have been previously reported. We describe a 6-wk-old girl with a papillary peritoneal mesothelioma of low grade malignancy. This is probably a congenital mesothelioma and is the youngest patient reported to date.

Malignant Peritoneal Mesothelioma
Tumori Journal, 1982Eight cases of peritoneal malignant mesothelioma observed at the Istituto Nazionale Tumori of Milan from 1972 to 1978 are reported. The clinical features of the cases clearly point out the diagnostic difficulties, the inadequacy of the treatment and the poor prognosis of this neoplasia. The authors maintain that more complete epidemiologic studies and

Archives of Surgery, 1988
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.

Pathology - Research and Practice, 1986A multicystic peritoneal mesothelioma in a 55-year-old man is reported. The large multicystic tumor was only partially removed. 36 months after the first presentation he is still working and his only complaint is abdominal swelling. The light microscopical, immunocytochemical and ultrastructural features are described and differential diagnoses ...

Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma
Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2001This paper summarizes the author's thoughts about the use of cytoreductive surgery combined with intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy (CS-IPHC) for treatment of peritoneal malignant mesothelioma. Pleural malignant mesotheliomas are by far more common (about ten- to thirty-fold) than the peritoneal variants (2.2 cases per 1 million in the US ...

Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare malignancy arising from the serosa of the abdominal cavity; its natural history is hallmarked by intra-abdominal disease progression. Peritoneal mesothelioma patients generally present with abdominal pain and/or ascites.

Chirurgie; memoires de l'Academie de chirurgie, 1991
On the basis of 5 personal cases with illustrations and a review of the literature, the authors emphasize the clinicopathological features of peritoneal mesotheliomas, rare primary tumors for which the histological diagnosis is often difficult. The classical evidence by contact with asbestos fibers is obtained in every second case only.
