Recurrent Cholangiocarcinoma Presenting as Ovarian Krukenberg Tumor

Abstract

The ovary is a common metastatic site for many neoplastic transformations of both gynecologic and nongynecologic origins. The morphologic and clinical similarities between metastatic and primary tumors of the ovary often render confusion for clinicians at diagnosis. The bile duct is an extremely rare source of metastases (Krukenberg tumor). We present here a rare case of recurrent cholangiocarcinoma with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the ovary.
