A 56 years old lady presented with pain and distension in the lower abdomen. Ultrasound showed a huge left ovarian cyst, which was surgically excised. Histopathology confirmed it to be - mucinuous cystadenocarcinoma ovary. A month later, she complained of continuing weight loss and pain in the right hypochondrium. Ultrasound abdomen revealed a solitary mass in the liver and growths in the gall bladder, common bile duct and lymph nodes. Guided FNAC showed evidence of metastatic deposits of mucinous cystadenocarcinoma ovary in these sites.
The case is being presented due to its rarity.
