Peritoneal pseudomyxoma is a pathological condition that compromises the peritoneum, characterized by the production of large quantities of mucinous liquid, which progressively fills the peritoneal cavity, originating in general from mucinous appendicular or ovarian tumors. We report a peritoneal pseudomyxoma associated with mucinous adenocarcinoma of the appendix synchronic with adenocarcinoma of the rectum in a 44 year old patient, where the initial diagnosis was rectal adenocarcinoma. Tumour of the appendix and peritoneal pseudomyxoma were incidental and found intraoperatively.

Methods: A total of 48 rabbits were evaluated. The animals were randomized into two groups, protocol 3 (study group) and protocol 4 (controls), and each group was then subdivided into 3 subgroups.
Purpose: To analyze, in vitro, the effects of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and acetic acid solutions on VX2 carcinoma cells in suspension and to examine the correlation between these effects and neoplastic cell death.
Methods: The VX2 tumor cells (10(7) cells/ml) were incubated in solutions containing differing concentrations (2.5% and 5%) of either acetylsalicylic acid or acetic acid, or in saline solution (controls).
Background: The number of outpatient surgical procedures performed in hospitals, as well as in private clinics, increases daily. In some countries, such as France, outpatient operations outnumber inpatient operations.
Objective: To evaluate results obtained at the Surgical Outpatient Clinic of the Clinics Hospital of the Medical School, Botucatu, SP, Brazil.
