Overview

Pseudomyxoma peritonei must be differentiated from peritoneal carcinomatosis without mucinous ascites, peritoneal sarcomatosis, and peritonitis.

Differential Diagnosis

Pseudomyxoma peritonei must be differentiated from:[1][2]

Differentiating pseudomyxoma peritonei from other diseases

  • On the basis of findings on CT scan such as visceral scalloping and histopathology, pseudomyxoma peritonei must be differentiated from other similar rare diseases such as Peritoneal carcinomatosis without muscinous ascites, Tubercluosis peritonitis, Sarcomatosis peritonei.
Diseases Clinical manifestations Para-clinical findings Gold standard Additional findings
Symptoms Signs
Lab Findings Imaging Histopathology
Symptom Constitutional symptoms Physical exam Other lab values Immunohistochemistry CT Scan Ultrasound
Pseudomyxoma peritonei[3][4]
  • Bloating
  • Abdominal distention
  • Negative
  • Non specific
  • CK 20, CDX2 and MUC2,MUC5AC
  • Low-attenuation
  • Scalloping of the visceral surfaces differentiates pseudomyxoma from other causes of peritnoitis.
  • Typically does not invade visceral organs or spread by lymphatic or hematogenous routes unlike mucinous carcinomatosis

  • The echoes within pseudomyxoma peritonei are not mobile
  • Echogenic septations within the gelatinous ascites are frequently observed.
  • Scalloping of the hepatic and splenic margins
  • Gelatinous ascites in peritoneum and visceral organs,usually right hemidiaphragm, liver.
  • Diagnostic laparascopy/laparatomy
Peritoneal carcinomatosis without mucinous ascites[5]

  • Negative
  • Abdominal distention
  • Abdominal pain
  • Non specific
  • Pleural effusion and/or masses in chest
  • Mesenteric or retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy
