  • Title: Peritonitis fibroplastica incapsulata with superadded post-operative starch powder peritonitis.
    Author: Kaufman M, Gloor F, Maurer W, Miller G.
    Journal: Scand J Gastroenterol; 1975; 10(8):801-4. PubMed ID: 1105762.
    Abstract:
    Peritonitis fibroplastica incapsulata is not generally accepted as a distinct syndrome. However, characteristic pathological alterations can be identified at laparotomy and by histological examinations. The aetiology of the disease is unknown. In the case reported a second disease arose, i.e. the peritoneal reaction to corn starch powder in the course of the surgical treatment of the peritonitis fibroplastica.
