Pseudomyxoma Peritonei Arising from Urachal Mucinous Neoplasms: a Case Series and Updated Literature Review
AbstractTo report a
case series of patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) from urachal mucinous neoplasm (UMN) treated with CRS and HIPEC at a high-volume referral centre, along with an updated literature review. Retrospective review of cases treated between 2000 and 2021. A literature review using MEDLINE and Google Scholar databases was performed. Clinical presentation of PMP from UMN is heterogeneous, and common symptoms are abdominal distension, weight loss, fatigue and haematuria. At least one tumour marker among CEA, CA 19.9, and CA 125 was elevated in the six cases reported, and 5/6 had a preoperative workin...

Urachal remnant and acute abdomen: when it's not what it seems
We present three cases in boys aged 11, 6, and 4 years who were brought to the emergency department for right iliac fossa pain, fever, and urinary symptoms. Examination and complementary tests results were compatible with acute complicated appendicitis and were sent to surgery. While in the operating room, appendicitis was excluded and inflammatory changes suggestive of infection of the urachal remnant were documented. Complications of urachal remnants should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute surgical abdomen, since advanced infection of the urachus may be a cause of confusion. A more accurate presumptiv...

Preoperative imaging contributes to pathologically complete resection of the urachal remnant by determining an appropriate surgical approach without unnecessary and excessive surgical invasion: a retrospective study
The urachus is an embryonic structure that connects the bladder to the allantois during early embryonic development. Occasionally, it fails to disappear at birth, leading to a case of urachal remnant (UR). Thi... (Source: BMC Urology)

Peritoneal Surface Malignancies Originating From Urachal Carcinoma: Case Reports and Review of the Literature
AbstractUrachal carcinoma (UC) is a rare and aggressive tumor arising from the urachal remnants, with the potential for peritoneal dissemination. Patients diagnosed with UC often have a poor prognosis. To date, there is no standardized treatment. Our objective is to present two cases of patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) secondary to an UC, who were treated with cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic peroperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). A review of the literature on CRS and HIPEC in UC suggests CRS and HIPEC to be a safe and viable treatment option. Two patients with PC of UC underwent CRS and...
