A Strange Case of Ovarian Cancer’s Recurrence: Is the Follow up Safe and Effective?

We present a case of a woman, with a previous diagnosis of ovarian cancer. She underwent an istero-annessiectomy and bilateral iliac lymphadenectomy and adjuvant complete cycle of chemotherapy. During next follow up, in the CT scan there was the evidence of a big neoplasm close to the left colon. All the radiological, cytological and biochemical exams were negative for recurrence. During surgical operation for a big ventral incisional hernia, we decided to take a sample of the neoplasm, which was positive for recurrence of the primary ovarian cancer. She underwent left hemicolectomy.
