Abstract
Ovarian cancer is recognized for the high capacity of spread which leads to the apparition of distant metastases via multiple pathways such as peritoneal, hematogenous or lymphatic route. If cases presenting peritoneal dissemination usually present extended but limited to the abdominal cavity lesions, patients with hematogenous or lymphatic spread will lead to the apparition of both intra-abdominal and extra-abdominal lesions. Even though, the presence of extra-abdominal lymphatic metastases is rather a rare event; however, contamination of extra-abdominal lymph nodes and is considered as distant metastasization and considered as stage IV of disease. The aim of the current paper is to review the cases presented so far with histopathological documented supraclavicular metastases originating from ovarian cancer.
