Benign Multicystic Peritoneal Mesothelioma: A case report
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical and Health Sciences - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Benign multicystic peritoneal mesothelioma is a well defined but rare neoplasm with a non specific appearance on imaging. The aetiology of this neoplasm remains obscure. The presenting features make a precise preoperative diagnosis difficult. CT and MRI are useful in suggesting the preoperative diagnosis but confirmation of diagnosis requires pathological analysis. We report the case of a patient with benign multicystic peritoneal mesothelioma and describe its appearance on magnetic resonance imaging, in correlation with gross, clinical and pathological findings.
