The peritoneum is a much neglected area, with relatively little pathology. It includes the omentum which is dealt with in the omentum article.
Benign
Peritoneal implants
Main article: Peritoneal implants
- These are dealt with in the ovarian tumours article. Broadly speaking they may be: (1) desmoplastic non-invasive, (2) epithelial non-invasive, and (3) invasive.
Well-differentiated papillary mesothelioma
- Should not be confused with malignant mesothelioma or benign multicystic mesothelioma.
- AKA benign papillary mesothelioma.
Main article: Well-differentiated papillary mesothelioma
Peritoneal inclusion cyst
Main article: Peritoneal inclusion cyst
- AKA inflammatory cyst of the peritoneum.
- AKA mesothelial inclusion cyst.[citation needed]
- AKA benign multicystic mesothelioma.[1]
- Should not be confused with malignant mesothelioma and benign papillary mesothelioma.
Malignant
Primary peritoneal serous carcinoma
General
- Very rare.
- Reported in men.[2]
Microscopic
Features:
- Like serous carcinoma elsewhere - see ovarian serous carcinoma.
- To exclude ovarian serous carcinoma all of the following criteria must be met:[3]
- Histology of the tumour = serous carcinoma.
- Bulk of the tumour involves the peritoneum.
- Ovarian substance tumour extent less than 5 x 5 mm in plane of section.
- Previous ovarian serous carcinoma is excluded.
- Old oopherectomies reviewed if possible.
DDx:
- Ovarian serous carcinoma.
- Other serous carcinomas - see serous carcinoma.
- Malignant mesothelioma.
IHC
- Like serous carcinoma elsewhere - see ovarian serous carcinoma.
Sign out
Should have comment something like:
High-grade serous carcinoma of the ovary/fallopian tube/periteonum is associated with BRCA1/2 mutation in approximately 20% of patients. Referral to genetic counseling is recommended.
Malignant mesothelioma
Main article: Malignant mesothelioma
This is like the tumour found in the pleural cavity.
Peritoneal metastasis
- AKA metastatic peritoneal disease.
Main article: Metastasis
General
Common causes:
- Gastrointestinal tract, esp. colorectal carcinoma.
- Gynecologic tract.
Note:
- Peritoneal disease in the context of liver metastases in colorectal carcinoma contraindicates liver resection.[4]
Microscopic
- See metastasis.
