CT findings of peritoneal and retroperitoneal neoplasms were evaluated in 24 patients. The accuracy of CT in locating peritoneal and retroperitoneal tumors was 87% and in differentiating benign from malignant ones 96%. It is difficult to evaluate the tumors histopathologically. We suggest that CT scan be preferable in diagnosis of tumors in that area.
