Perivascular Epithelioid Cell Tumor (PEComa) of Abdominal Cavity from Falciform Ligament: A Case Report

A 30-yr-old Korean man visited to hospital for the evaluation of a growing, palpable abdominal mass. He had felt the mass growing over 6 months.

PEComa in the colon is very rare, with only a few reported cases so far. Because of its rarity, the clinical features and biological behavior of PEComa in the colon have yet to be established. A 16-year-old female patie...
