Abstract

Malignant mesothelioma is a rare aggressive tumour of the mesothelium with a propensity to spread locally and, rarely, to distant organs. The latest advances in its diagnosis and treatment have led to an increase in unusual disease presentations. Although a direct invasion of the perineum has been previously described in a men, a malignant mesothelioma spreading to the perianal region was never reported in a women. We presented a rare case of malignant mesothelioma recurrence spreading from the peritoneal cavity to the perineum through the rectovaginal space.
