Core Tip	The fact that Pseudomyxoma peritonei is an orphan disease explains a certain ignorance about this nosologic entity. It continues to be involved in controversy, starting with its classification. It is thought that mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of the ovary is an important etiology for genesis of Pseudomyoma. Nevertheless, this statement is completely wrong. This review is aimed at providing-clarifications around some of the misconceptions surrounding this disease, and explaining the historical sources from which such misconceptios have been drawn.
