Resumo: Aims: Case report of a rare and progressive disease whose diagnosis is difficult because of the nonspecific symptoms. Case description: Male, 26 years-old patient, presenting mobile abdominal mass with a weight gain of 4 kg in 4 months. Laparotomy has shown ascites and a mucinous tumoral mass compromising the peritoneal cavity. Conclusions: Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a rare and poorly understood disease, characterized by mucinous ascites and implants involving the peritoneal surfaces, resulting in a “jelly belly”. The primary site of origin is commonly the appendix. KEY WORDS: PSEUDOMYXOMA PERITONEI; NEOPLASMS, CYSTIC, MUCINOUS, AND SEROUS.

Descrição do caso: Paciente masculino, de 26 anos de idade, ganho de peso (4 kg em 4 meses), apresentando massa abdominal móvel. À laparotomia evidenciou-se ascite volumosa e massa tumoral mucinosa comprometendo a cavidade peritoneal. Conclusões: Pseudomixoma peritonei é uma doença rara e pouco compreendida, caracterizada por ascite mucinosa e implantes mucinosos envolvendo a cavidade peritoneal, resultando em uma “gelatina”. O tumor primário geralmente se origina no apêndice.
