Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Adenomucinosis is a rare condition characterized by accumulation of large volumes of mucin, typically related to mucinous neoplasms of the appendix within the peritoneal space. Extraperitoneal adenomucinosis is an uncommon variant where mucin accumulates outside the peritoneal space and usually arises following surgery for mucinous appendiceal neoplasms. This is a case of subperitoneal adenomucinosis resulting from retention of a small fragment of rectal mucosa following proctocolectomy for ulcerative colitis 16 years prior. The patient presented with a slow-growing boggy perineal mass. Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed the mass to be localized to the pelvis, without solid enhancing components, and correctly facilitated local surgical excision without the risk of peritoneal dissemination and accurately predicted benignity.
