Abstract

Benign Multicystic Peritoneal Mesothelioma (BMPM) is a very infrequent pathology that mainly appears in women of reproductive age and has a good prognosis. Unlike malignant mesotheliomas, it is not associated with asbestos and its etiopathogenesis is still unclear. Although there have been many attempts of several types of treatment, there is currently no treatment of choice.

A 31-year-old woman with BMPM was recently treated at the University Hospital of Donostia. The diagnosis was made by histopathological examination of biopsies of the lesion and for management, cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) were decided. In the CT performed three months later, a relapse was seen and due to the findings of the surgery performed to

treat it, the curative intent had to be abandoned and it was decided to follow up. To date, the patient remains asymptomatic.

The purpose of this paper is to compile the information published to date on this unusual pathology, in order to help in the diagnosis and treatment decision in clinical practice. To help with this, the particularities of the case at HUD will be presented.
