Abstract
Both pseudomyxoma peritonei and Morgagni hernias in adults are rare clinical conditions. A 70-year-old woman who was diagnosed with pseudomyxoma peritonei with Morgagni hernia underwent cytoreductive surgery and primary repair. Pseudomyxoma peritonei causes increased intra-abdominal pressure that may lead to acquired congenital diaphragmatic hernia when there is a local fragility in the diaphragmatic musculature. Parietal peritonectomy of the right diaphragmatic peritoneum can safely remove the hernia sac. The high rate of infections associated with cytoreductive surgery causes hesitation for concurrent mesh repair for Morgagni hernia. This is the first report of pseudomyxoma peritonei with Morgagni hernia. Cytoreductive surgery including parietal peritonectomy of the right diaphragmatic peritoneum plus primary repair of hernial defect was performed safely and successfully, which achieved positive short-term results for patients with pseudomyxoma peritonei-associated Morgagni hernia.
期刊介绍:
This online-only journal publishes original case reports on all types of cancer. In particular, we welcome not only case reports of educational value in the diagnosis and treatment of cancers, but also reports on molecularly analyzed cancer cases, including gene mutations, gene fusions, gene expression, and changes in copy number, regardless of their known clinical significance. Assessing the molecular analysis of a tumor usually requires a “cancer conference” in which experts from various fields discuss it. Even if the authors and their respective “cancer conference” were unable to determine the clinical significance of molecular changes at the time of submission and publication, their data may provide evidence that will help the scientific community develop precision medicine solutions in the future. We welcome case reports with reviews of the literature on similar cases, as they are more useful and valuable to readers than are reports of rare cases. International Cancer Conference Journal is the official publication of the Japan Society of Clinical Oncology (JSCO).
