Ovarian metastases of pancreatic adenocarcinoma: clinical presentation, role of surgery, and potential value of the mutational profile for the differential diagnosis with primary mucinous ovarian carcinoma

Ovarian metastases of pancreatic adenocarcinoma: clinical presentation, role of surgery, and potential value of the mutational profile for the differential diagnosis with primary mucinous ovarian carcinoma

Background: Ovarian metastases (OM) of pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PA) (OM-PA) can mimic primary ovarian mucinous carcinoma (POMC) on imaging and histology. These metastases are often symptomatic and not highly chemosensitive, so that oophorectomy may be considered. Aims: The aims of this study were...
