Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is an uncommon "borderline malignancy" generally arising from a perforated appendiceal epithelial tumour. Optimal treatment involves a combination of cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Controversy persists regarding the pathological classification and its prognostic value. Computed

Efficacy and safety in the use of intraperitoneal hyperthermia chemotherapy and peritoneal cytoreductive surgery for pseudomyxoma peritonei from appendiceal neoplasm: A systematic review [PDF]
The objective of this systematic review is to provide efficacy and safety data in the application of Intra-Abdominal Hyperthermia Chemotherapy (HIPEC) and Cytoreductive Surgery (CRS) in patients with Peritoneal Pseudomyxoma (PMP) of origin in the cecal ...

Stemness and hybrid epithelial‐mesenchymal profiles guide peritoneal dissemination of malignant mesothelioma and pseudomyxoma peritonei [PDF]
What's new? Factors involved in peritoneal dissemination of malignant mesothelioma (MM) and pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) are poorly characterized. Increased amounts of cancer stem cells identified high‐grade PMP and distinguished mass‐derived from ascitic/mucin‐associated cells in MM and PMP.

Surveillance of low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms for progression to pseudomyxoma peritonei: Results from a structured surveillance programme. [PDF]
Abstract Aim Low‐grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) of the appendix is a rare tumour that can progress to pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). There is a lack of standardization of surveillance following resection of LAMN as the progression rate to PMP is unclear.

Abstract Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a relatively rare and poorly understood condition in which mucus accumulates within the peritoneal cavity. The presence of cells in the mucin, either inflammatory or neoplastic, distinguishes it from simple acellular mucus ascites caused by mucinous spillage.

Abstract Background Pseudomyxoma peritonei is an unusual condition in which gelatinous fluid collections are associated with mucinous implants on the peritoneal surfaces and omentum. The pathological origin and ideal treatment of the condition are subjects of debate.

Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a rare tumorous disease with various grades of malignancy and is characterized by production of mucinous and gelatinous masses. Development of pseudomyxoma peritonei is usually associated with rupture of appendiceal mucinous tumors and other mucinous tumors of the gastrointestinal tract or ovaries.

Pseudomyxoma Peritonei (PMP) and Peritoneal Mesothelioma (PM) are both rare peritoneal malignancies. Currently, affected patients may be treated with Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy offering long-term survival or even ...

In pseudomyxoma peritonei, mucinous implants develop on peritoneal surfaces and omentum, often resulting in gelatinous ascites. Definitive treatment has not been established. Adjunctive radiation therapy or chemotherapy following laparotomy has improved survival in some patients.

Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a clinical entity that has lead to much confusion about its etiology, clinical manifestations, treatment, and prognosis. Pseudomyxoma peritonei is currently defined as a grade I mucinous adenocarcinoma that arises from a primary appendiceal adenoma. The clinical entity is defined by a redistribution phenomenon. This means that
