Dr. Carol D Souza, Dr. K. Pushpalatha Pai

Abstract :

Small cell carcinoma of the ovary is a rare, poorly understood aggressive tumour of young women. Here is a case report of 52 year old women who developed a bilateral ovarian tumour, two years after total abdominal hysterectomy where the ovaries were not removed at the time of surgery. Microscopically, the tumour resembled small cell carcinoma of the lung .The immunohistochemical features confirmed the diagnosis of pulmonary type of primary small cell carcinoma of the ovary.
