Genome-wide mutational landscape of mucinous carcinomatosis peritonei of appendiceal origin
...Published in Genome Medicine
BackgroundMucinous neoplasms of the appendix (MNA) are rare tumors which may progress from benign to malignant disease with an aggressive biological behavior. MNA is often diagnosed after metastasis to the peritoneal surfaces resulting in mucinous carcinomatosis peritonei (MCP). Genetic alterations in MNA are poorly characterized due to its low inc...
