ABSTRACT
Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a poorly understood condition characterized by mucinous ascites and multifocal peritoneal mucinous tumors. Pseudomyxoma peritonei is most commonly associated with mucinous tumors of the ovary and appendix. When two lesions are morphologically similar, it is difficult to determine whether one reflects a metastasis or whether the tumors are independent. Many studies concluded that most cases in which both the appendix and ovary were involved were primary appendiceal tumor with secondary involvement of the ovary, but we have experienced one case of pseudomyxoma peritonei originated from independent primary borderline mucinous tumors of the ovary and appendix. So we report this case with the brief review of literatures
