Multicystic epithelioid mesothelioma infiltrating abdominal wall and thigh: case report

Multicystic epithelioid mesothelioma is a rare benign tumor that arises from changes in peritoneal mesothelial cells. We report a large multicystic epithelioid mesothelioma case in a female patient with infiltration into the abdominal wall and thigh. Extensive tumor resection and reconstruction were performed with multiple fasciocutaneous flaps randomized in the abdominal region, flanks, right and left thigh flaps and vulva flap. It has been in full healing for nine months without recurrence and complaints.
