Abstract
|
|
|
|
Ovarian metastasis originating from primary signet ring cell carcinoma of the appendix is an exceedingly rare entity. MRI shows heterogeneous iso- and high-signal intensities of the well-defined nodular masses on T1- and T2-weighted images, as well as masses showing enhancement with a nonenhancing portion on a contrast enhanced T1-weighted image. CT shows numerous omental nodules and a diffuse, thick, and enhanced appendix. We report here on a rare case of solid bilateral ovarian metastases from signet-ring carcinoma of the appendix.
