Abstract
Pseudomyxoma peritonei, a disseminated intraabdominal neoplasm, which is the result of either metaplasia of the abdominal mesothelium or direct implantation of mucinous epithelium, typically does not metastasize outside the peritoneal cavity. A case of well documented pseudomyxoma peritonei with extraperitoneal disease in the form of a colonic polyp is presented. Its etiology may be related to the multiple surgical procedures the patient had undergone.
