Abstract

Mesotheliomas usually arise from the pleura and are malignant. We report an unusual case of benign peritoneal mesothelioma presenting in a 59-year-old woman. The disease resulted in bilateral hydronephrosis, colovesical fistula formation, recurrent small bowel obstruction and chronic abdominal pain. To date only a handful of cases have been reported and to the best of our knowledge, none has been so aggressive.
