1 and some clinical reports of PMP have included primary mucinous tumors of the stomach, colon, pancreas, ovary, and urachus. Various attempts at histologic definitions and classification of mucinous appendiceal tumors with peritoneal dissemination have resulted in a confusing array of histologic terminology and acronyms (mucocele, mucinous cystadenoma, mucinous adenocarcinoma, LAMN, MTUMP, DPAM, PMCA, PMCA-I, etc.).
