45 year old woman with prior history of squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the vulva, presented with progressive ascites. Physical examination revealed a distended abdomen with diffuse non-specific changes on PET scan and moderately elevated CA-125.
At laparoscopy, she was found to have 1.8 liters of ascites and an erythematous and focally granular peritoneum. Several biopsies were taken.
