Mesotheliomas are a rare malignancy of the serosal membrane. Mainly it affects the pleural surfaces followed by the second most common location, "peritoneum." The disease follows an aggressive pattern of spread, and by the time the diagnosis is established, the condition significantly spreads to distant locations. Diagnosis of malignant peritoneal mesothelioma is typically made by tissue biopsy. The standard treatment is radical resection; however, patients have benefited from several other modalities. The current case report describes a unique case of malignant mesothelioma, biphasic peritoneal mesothelioma (BPM), which comprises less than 25% of all peritoneal mesotheliomas. The diagnosis and treatment do not differ from other subtypes; however, the prognosis is poor, and if untreated, the survival is typically less than six months.
间皮瘤是一种罕见的浆膜恶性肿瘤。主要累及胸膜表面，其次是第二常见的部位“腹膜”。该疾病呈侵袭性扩散模式，在确诊时，病情已显著扩散至远处。恶性腹膜间皮瘤的诊断通常通过组织活检进行。标准治疗方法是根治性切除；然而，患者也从其他几种治疗方式中获益。本病例报告描述了一例独特的恶性间皮瘤，即双相性腹膜间皮瘤（BPM），其在所有腹膜间皮瘤中占比不到25%。其诊断和治疗与其他亚型并无差异；然而，预后较差，如果不进行治疗，生存期通常不到六个月。
