A member asked:
Is a exophytic liver met on colon cancer pt the peritoneal area ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Like a mushroom: Typically, this description is similar to a mushroom growing from the surface of the liver, with the stalk being attached to the liver. The surface of the liver (even the entire liver) is in the abdominal (or peritoneal) cavity. Hope this helps!
