Abstract

Key Clinical Message: Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma, a rare and poor prognosis disease, is seldom treated surgically, especially for recurrence. However, early diagnosis and aggressive treatment of primary and recurrent tumors can achieve long-term patient survival.<br />Abstract: Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare and aggressive tumor, and rarely indicated for surgery, especially for recurrence. In the present case, we report a rare case who could survive long-term after two surgeries in 4 years for MPM.<br />Competing Interests: The authors declare that they have no competing interests.
