AbstractBackgroundThis case report aims to describe the impact of the bidirectional chemotherapy (BDC) on resecability for initially unresectable malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM).MethodsWe report a case of 55-year-old male with the diagnosis of initially unresecable MPM. The BDC combined intravenous (IV) chemotherapy (Cisplatin–Pemetrexed) and intra peritoneal (IP) chemotherapy (Cisplatin). The response to chemotherapy was assessed by CT – scan and laparoscopy.ResultsInitial evaluation classed the disease as unresecable with PCI at 39. At the reevaluation, CT – scan and laparoscopy showed a macroscopic response, allowing surgery consisting of cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intra peritoneal chemotherapy (Doxorubicin and Cisplatin).ConclusionsBDC (IV and IP) has promising results and allows to undergo surgery for selected patients with borderline or initially unresectable MPM.

Imaging Characteristics

We present a 14-year-old boy with peritoneal epithelial malignant mesothelioma (PEMM). While pathology is required to make this diagnosis, radiology plays a crucial role throughout the clinical course of this disease. The key imaging characteristics of peritoneal mesothelioma have been previously well-described in the adult population, but there are rare reports in the pediatric population. This pediatric report highlights the multidimensional use of imaging in this disease, from the initial evaluation to therapeutic supplementation and subsequent follow-up.
