Radiol Case Rep. 2024 Sep 24;19(12):6217-6219. doi: 10.1016/j.radcr.2024.09.036. eCollection 2024 Dec.

Abstract

The pancreas is a more common metastatic site for renal carcinoma; however, metastatic spread of ovarian carcinoma to the pancreas is very rare, with only a few sporadic cases published in the literature. The clinical presentation is usually dominated by epigastric pain. We report a rare case of pancreatic metastases occurring approximately 13 years after a bilateral hysterectomy with salpingo-oophorectomy for bilateral serous ovarian carcinoma.
