Peritoneal carcinomatosis is most commonly a rare late-stage manifestation of disseminated ovarian cancer. Women with peritoneal carcinomatosis with no obvious primary tumor are presumptively treated for ovarian cancer. However, less frequently, gastrointestinal cancer disseminates to the peritoneum, which would confer other treatment options. Herein, we present a case of a 68-year-old woman who was managed for peritoneal carcinomatosis of metastatic mucinous adenocarcinoma of lower gastrointestinal origin.
