Abstract

Primary peritoneal serous papillary carcinoma (PPSPC) is very rare and not well identified. Because of developmental, biological and histologic similarity to papillary serous carcinoma of ovary its diagnosis and treatment, prognosis and post treatment follow up schedule is similar that of epithelial ovarian cancer. We have experienced two cases of primary peritoneal serous papillary carcinoma and report this with brief review of the concerned literatures.
