Abstract:
Cerebral metastses secondary to primary epithelial ovarian carcinoma are unusual. The incidence was estimated under 1%, but some authors reported higher incidence than previously reported data. Recently, we experienced a case of cerebral metastasis secondary to primary epithelial ovarian cancer. We present this case with review of brief related literatures.
