  • Title: CT of pseudomyxoma peritonei: case report.
    Author: Masaryk TJ, Chilcote WA.
    Journal: Comput Radiol; 1984; 8(1):43-7. PubMed ID: 6697707.
    Abstract:
    Pseudomyxoma peritonei is an uncommon disorder, which is usually the sequelae of mucocele of the appendix or mucinous ovarian cystadenocarcinoma. The characteristic CT findings of massive ascites, loculated fluid collections, hepatic and mesenteric scalloping caused by low attenuation tumor masses, without lymphadenopathy and in the presence of intrinsically normal viscera strongly suggest the diagnosis.
