The most common types encountered during pregnancy are cervical, breast and ovarian. Epithelial tumors of the appendix on the other hand are rare and account for only approximately 1% of all colorectal neoplasms; the occurrence of this neoplasm during pregnancy is extremely rare.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Case Presentation<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The medical history of a 30 year old woman diagnosed at 17 weeks gestation with an appendiceal mucinous tumor with large volume pseudomyxoma peritonei was presented. Her pregnancy was preserved and she had an early vaginal delivery of a healthy baby at 35 weeks. At 2 1\/2 weeks postpartum the patient underwent extensive cytoreductive surgery and intraperitoneal chemotherapy. She remains disease-free 5 years after her initial diagnosis. A literature review of this clinical situation and a discussion of treatment plans were presented.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The management of an appendiceal tumor with pseudomyxoma peritonei diagnosed during pregnancy requires full knowledge of the natural history of this disease to achieve a balance of concern for maternal survival and fetal health.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1477-7819-7-48","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,19]],"date-time":"2009-05-19T18:48:55Z","timestamp":1242758935000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Management of appendiceal pseudomyxoma peritonei diagnosed during pregnancy"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Erika","family":"Haase","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dal","family":"Yoo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Paul H","family":"Sugarbaker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2009,5,19]]},"reference":[{"key":"585_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"585","DOI":"10.1016\/S1055-3207(03)00026-7","volume":"12","author":"BJ Moran","year":"2003","unstructured":"Moran BJ, Cecil TD: The etiology, clinical presentation, and management of pseudomyxoma peritonei.
