What is PMP?
PMP is a “syndrome” known as Pseudomyxoma Peritonei. Literally, this means false (pseudo) benign tumor with mucinous features (myxoma) of the abdomen (peritonei). PMP is sometimes known as “jelly belly”. It is very rare and often misdiagnosed and poorly treated.
There are few experienced oncologists that treat PMP, and patients often undergo a variety of “exploratory” procedures.
