Pseudomyxoma peritonei. Report of a case with extraperitoneal metastasis and invasion of the spleen

T Mets, W Van Hove and H Louis

The findings in a patient with pseudomyxoma peritonei, probably of appendicular origin, are reported. As a rule, pseudomyxoma peritonei remains limited to the peritoneal cavity, but in this case, dissemination occurred to the right pleural cavity and to the pericardium. In addition, invasion of the spleen (to our knowledge, nor previously described) was noted.
