Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a rare form of mucinous ascites associated with peritoneal and omental implants. The origin is controversial, and recent immunohistochemical and molecular genetic evidence suggests the appendix to be the likely site. The condition often presents as an incidental finding at laparotomy.

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

JAMA Surgery, 2023
Importance Pseudomyxoma peritoni, a rare condition characterized by mucinous ascites and peritoneal deposits, mainly originates from a ruptured mucinous appendix tumor and is considered an indolent disease but can progress and become fatal.
