Introduction:
Pseudomyxoma extraperitonei (PE) is a rare finding. The most common cause is the rupture of a mucocele of the appendix into the retroperitoneum.
Presentation Of Case:
Here we report a case of a 52 years old female patient with a mass in the right abdomen and vague lower abdominal pain underwent resection of a extraperitoneal encapsulated mass. The histopathological examination revealed a mucinous pseudomyxoma with a low grade of differentiation.
Discussion:
We report a case of pseudomyxoma extraperitonei with a review of literature.
Conclusion:
The treatment of pseudomyxoma differs substantially depending on whether it is intraperitoneal or extraperitoneal. The risk of recurrence is such that follow-up, based on a physical examination, CT scan and serum markers, is essential.
