Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Appendectomy is the standard of care for a nonruptured mucinous cystadenoma with great care in prevention of rupture and spillage in the peritoneal cavity.4 When rupture is encountered a right hemicolectomy with emphasis in avoiding spillage to prevent pseudomyxoma peritonei is justified. [...] four quadrant exploration of the abdomen is warranted to evaluate the extent of the disease and possible synchronous neoplasms.
