Pseudomyxoma Peritonei Originating from Transverse Colon Mucinous Adenocarcinoma: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Conclusions: This is the first report of PMP originating from a transverse colonic mucinous adenocarcinoma. It was diagnosed during resective surgery, involved ovarian metastasis, and survival was short. We did an extensive literature review in order to describe the clinical characteristics, histopathological findings, genetic profile, and potential treatments of PMP caused by nonappendiceal mucinous adenocarcinoma.
