Abstract
Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (MPM) in children has been rarely described in the literature. During the last 10 years we have seen 2 cases. The first was a 2-year-old boy who died 3 months after surgery. The second is now alive two and a half years after the mesothelioma was found, has undergone 3 laparotomies for recurrent tumor, and is now receiving chemotherapy and is apparently free of tumor.Entities:
