卵巢转移性肿瘤不常见,但卵巢转移性腺癌呈现为大肿块,类似原发瘤即卵巢Krukenberg瘤。卵巢Krukenberg瘤组织学上其实是富于粘液的印戒细胞癌,多由胃肠道粘液癌转移而来。尸解中可见突出盆腔的是右侧卵巢巨大的团块。在右下肝叶也存在转移。
Metastatic tumors to ovary are uncommon, but there is one situation in which a metastatic adenocarcinoma to ovary appears as a large mass and resembles a primary tumor: a so-called "Krukenberg" tumor of ovary which has a signet ring histologic pattern and usually is metastatic from a primary in gastrointestinal tract. Seen here extending out of the pelvis at autopsy is a large right ovarian mass. Metastases are also present in the lower right portion of liver.
