Abstract

Peritoneal Mesothelioma Presenting as Acute Abdominal Pain Secondary to Bowel Perforation

Jin A Hur, Miya C Yoshida and Moises R Zepeda

Peritoneal mesothelioma presents with nonspecific signs and symptoms usually in its terminal stage. The most common presentation is abdominal pain and ascites. Rarely, it may present as an acute abdomen with small bowel perforation. We present a rare case of a 67-year-old male with diffuse peritoneal mesothelioma and jejunal perforation.
