Abstract
Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare manifestation of primary mucinous neoplasms. We report two rare cases of PMP originating from mucinous primary ovarian neoplasms. The case series discusses the cases of female patients aged 86 and 52 years who presented with worsening dyspepsia, abdominal distension, pelvic pain, and altered bowel habits. Both of the patients underwent evaluation comprising cancer antigen-125 (CA-125) levels, ultrasound (US) examination of the abdomen and the pelvis, tumor markers, cytological evaluation, and contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) of the pelvis and abdomen. Patients were diagnosed to have pseudomyxoma peritonei arising from mucinous ovarian tumors. Patients were referred to the surgical department and were successfully managed with repeated removal of mucinous material. The present case report highlights the significant radio-pathologic characteristics of PMP, which originated from mucinous ovarian tumors.
