| Core Tip |
Appendiceal mucoceles complicated by pseudomyxoma peritonei are uncommon and often present with nonspecific symptoms that delay diagnosis. Optimal management requires cytoreductive surgery combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. This five-patient case series highlights diverse presentations, imaging findings, operative strategies, and recurrence patterns. Our experience underscores the importance of early recognition, complete cytoreduction, individualized hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy protocols, and long-term surveillance to manage the chronic nature of pseudomyxoma peritonei effectively. |
