Difficult Diagnosis of Peritoneal Serous Papillary Carcinoma in a 63-year-old Woman: A Case Report.

Background: Peritoneal serous papillary carcinoma (PSPC) is a rare disease. It is clinically and histologically similar to progressive ovarian serous adenocarcinoma and involves normal-sized ovaries, making it challenging to diagnose. In this report, we describe a case of peritoneal serous papillary carcinoma that was difficult to identify and how we made a correct diagnosis in order to begin a timely course of treatment.
