Skin as a Site of Recurrence in Carcinoma Ovary- An Unusual Presentation
Journal Title: International Journal of Medical and Pharmaceutical Case Reports - Year 2016, Vol 8, Issue 3
Abstract
Cutaneous metastases from various malignancies have been reported in literature but skin as a site of recurrence in cancer ovary has been seldom reported. We hereby report one such case of a 47 year old, follow up case of ovarian cancer, which progressed after two lines of chemotherapy and presented with abdominal skin nodule as site of metastatic recurrence, nearly 32 months after diagnosis of ovarian cancer.
