Clinics in diagnostic imaging (22). Calcified peritoneal carcinomatosis

A 37-year-old woman, with previously resected mucinous adenocarcinoma of the colon, presented with menorrhagia and a palpable pelvic mass. Radiographs and computed tomography (CT) demonstrated calcified peritoneal carcinomatosis in the abdomen and pelvis. Types of abdominal calcifications and imaging of intraperitoneal masses, particularly of peritoneal tumours, are discussed.
