Core Tip |
Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is an extremely rare tumor with nonspecific clinical manifestations, which is extremely difficult to diagnose. Herein, we reported a case with massive ascites as the first symptom. The patient was diagnosed with MPM based on a combination of histological, immune, and imaging findings. The patient refused tumor cytoreductive surgery and then received bidirectional chemotherapy, hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy, and immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Unfortunately, she died of disease progression two months after diagnosis. This case report aims to provide clinical evidence for the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of rare MPM. |
