Abstract
Primary peritoneal malignant mixed mullerian tumors are very rare. We report the case
of a patient presenting with pain in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen and in
whom the physical examination demonstrated a peritoneal mass. Computed tomography
(CT) confirmed the presence of a mass, with invasion of adjacent organs.
