Abstract
Introduction: Pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) is a rare condition in which there is mucin present in the peritoneal cavity. This condition is closely associated with the presence of either an appendiceal or an ovarian malignancy. The incidence is estimated to be 1 – 2 out of a million. 1 It is usually discovered at an advanced stage and severely impacts quality of life. 2 We present a case of pseudomyxoma peritonei in a 86yr old female, with no observable appendiceal or ovarian pathology. Case Presentation: An 86-year-old female patient presented to the emergency department (ED) of a rural hospital with a chief concern of abdominal bloating of insidious onset. She had undergone an abdominal paracentesis in Mexico five days prior
