Abstract:
Introduction: Ovarian carcinoma is second most common gynaecologic cancer and the leading cause of death from gynaecologic malignancy. Serous carcinoma of the ovary with metastasis to cervical lymph nodes, breast and thyroid is a rare event. It is associated with poor prognosis.
Case Report: We present a case of 50 year old female with swelling neck thyroid region, cervical region and lump in breast reported as distant metastasis of serous carcinoma of the ovary.
Conclusion: Serous carcinoma of the ovary presenting as cervical lymphadenopathy, metastasis to breast and thyroid is uncommon. An accurate histological diagnosis is required as this has great impact on treatment outcome.
