Abstract
Synchronous mesothelioma with other primary malignancies has previously been reported. However, the finding of a low-grade peritoneal mesothelioma with a synchronous ovarian endometrioid adenocarcinoma remains unreported. We report a case of a 57-year-old woman presenting with distended abdomen. CT abdomen and pelvis and subsequent MRI revealed a large pelvic mass. On pathology of the exploratory laparotomy specimen, stage IIIB FIGO grade 3 right ovarian endometrioid adenocarcinoma, as well as stage 1A left ovarian endometrioid borderline tumor, were discovered. Incidentally, a low-grade mesothelioma, epithelioid type, was discovered spanning omentum, right upper paracolic gutter left upper paracolic gutter, and umbilicus. Post-surgery, chemotherapy was initiated primarily to treat the ovarian adenocarcinoma.
