Surgery
- The most effective treatment for mucinous cystadenocarcinoma is surgical resection.[1]
Mucinous Cystadenocarcinoma of Pancreas
- Pancreatectomy and pancreaticoduodenectomy for mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas.[2][3]
- Surgical resection of the whole pancreas is suitable in multiple symptomatic lesions.
Mucinous Cystadenocarcinoma of Appendix
- Surgical resection of appendiceal mucinous may be done for therapeutic purposes or to confirm the diagnosis.[4]
- A standard appendectomy is done for most appendiceal mucinous lesions.[5]
- Extensive dissection and resection may be done in the involvement of ileum and surrounding structure.[6]
- A partial cecectomy, ileocecectomy or right colectomy may be performed depending on the need and involvement of these structures.[7]
Mucinous Cystadenocarcinoma of Ovary
- In case of ovarian mucinous cystadenocarcinoma hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy are done. In order to remove the metastases in the opposite ovary, adnexa, or uterus, or a coexistent primary endometrial cancer.
- A novel technique “radical oophorectomy” is introduced in patients with locally advanced ovarian cancer extending to surrounding reproductive organs, pelvic peritoneum and sigmoid colon. [8]
