a. tuberculous peritonitis.
b. Pneumococcal peritonitis.
c. Gonoccocal peritonitis.
d. Ruptured appendicial mucocele.
e.Lymphosarcoma of the bowel.
Ans: C
This disease is most commonly caused by an appendiceal primary cancer (cancer of the appendix); mucinous tumors of the ovary have also been implicated, although in most cases ovarian involvement is favored to be a metastasis from an appendiceal or other gastrointestinal source.
Pseudomyxoma peritonei is a condition caused by the production of abundant mucin by tumor cells, which fills the abdominal cavity. If left untreated, mucin will eventually build up to the point where it compresses vital structures: the colon, the liver, kidneys,stomach, spleen, pancreas, etc.
The disease rarely spreads through the lymphatic system or through the bloodstream. It is characterized by mucin and scattered cancer cells in the abdominal cavity.
