Overview

Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma must be differentiated from mucinous cystadenoma, serous cystadenoma, and pseudocyst.

Differentiating Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma from other Diseases

Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of ovary

  • Mucinous borderline tumor of the ovary
  • Metastatic mucinous carcinoma[1]

Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of pancreas

Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of appendix

  • Appendicitis
  • Nonmucinous appendiceal tumors
  • Mesenteric cyst[2][3]
Mucinous

cystadenocarcinoma

of ovary

Clinical manifestations Para-clinical findings Gold standard
Sign and symptoms Physical

examination

Lab Findings Imaging Histopathology
US CT MRI
Mucinous

borderline

tumor

of the ovary

  • Asymptomatic initially
  • Vaginal bleeding
  • Abdominal mass
  • Increased abdominal girth
  • Abdominal mass
  • Decreased Hb
  • Raised CEA
  • Localizes tumor
  • Demarcates the cancer
  • To visulaize the extent of the tumor
  • Large multiloculated cystic masses
  • mucus-containing cysts
  • Image guided biopsy and histopathological analysis
Metastatic

mucinous

carcinoma[4]

  • Ascities
  • Abdominal mass
  • Abdominal fullness
  • Early satiety
  • Fatigue
  • Bowel obstruction
  • Pleural effusion
  • Pelvic or abdominal pain
  • Venous thromboembolism
  • Bloating
  • Urinary frequency
  • Increased abdominal girth
  • Abdominal mass
  • Ascities
  • Pallor
  • Lymphadenopathy
  • Incresed CA-125
  • Decreased-Hb
  • Raised CEA
  • For the assessment for ascites and to the extent of cancer
  • Shows intra-abdominal spread
  • Shows distant metastasis and extent of the tumor
  • Mucinous differentiation
  • Tall columnar cells with apical mucin
  • Endocervical or intestinal-like appearance
  • Back-to-back cribriform glands with confluent growth pattern
  • Invasive morphology
  • Image-guided biopsy of patients with peritoneal metastasis and histopathological analysis
Mucinous

cystadenocarcinoma of pancreas

Symptoms Physical examination Lab Findings US CT MRI Histopathology Gold standard
Mucinous

cystadenoma

of pancreas[5][6][7][8]

  • Asymptomatic
  • Epigastric fullness
  • Abdominal mass
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Back pain
  • Solitary, multilocular or unilocular cysts with a fibrotic wall and containing mucin.
  • Columnar epithelium lined mucin-producing cysts with different level of dysplasia.
