Pseudomyxoma peritonei is an unusual condition in which diffuse collections of gelatinous fluid are associated with mucinous implants on the peritoneal surfaces and omentum. It is now generally accepted that pseudomyxoma peritonei is due to neoplastic mucus-secreting cells within the peritoneal cavity. The diagnosis is not difficult before surgery, owing to the development of radiologic imaging studies. This disease is a malignancy that, even after excision of the metastatic areas, has a poor prognosis, since no effective therapy has yet been established besides debulking surgery.
腹膜假黏液瘤是一种罕见病症，其中弥漫性的胶冻样液体聚集与腹膜表面和大网膜上的黏液性种植体相关。现在普遍认为腹膜假黏液瘤是由于腹腔内肿瘤性黏液分泌细胞所致。由于放射影像学研究的发展，术前诊断并不困难。这种疾病是一种恶性肿瘤，即使切除转移灶后预后也很差，因为除了减瘤手术外，尚未确立有效的治疗方法。
