Abstract
The case report aims to highlight a rare entity called gliomatosis peritonei. We report a case of a 23-year-old female presenting with an ovarian mass along with multiple omental nodules. On histopathological examination, the ovarian mass was diagnosed as mature cystic teratoma and the omental nodules showed features of gliomatosis peritonei. Gliomatosis peritonei is a rare entity characterized by peritoneal or omental implants of mature glial tissue. GFAP (Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein) was positive in the omental nodules. Gliomatosis peritonei is an exceptional finding and requires long term follow up of the patient.
