Difficult Diagnosis of Peritoneal Serous Papillary Carcinoma in a 63-year-old Woman: A Case Report.

CONCLUSIONS: The diagnosis and treatment of peritoneal serous papillary carcinoma may be delayed or may not be performed unless Class III findings are detected through uterine mucosal cytology before surgery. Surgeons should not hesitate to perform laparotomy when necessary to identify and appropriately treat patients, even if abnormalities are not detected in the preoperative examination.
