Abstract EN
Ovarian clear-cell carcinoma is an uncommon subtype of epithelial ovarian carcinoma.
It carries a generally poor prognosis because of its resistance to standard treatment and metastatic spread to vital organs.
Metastasis to the breast is rare and bilateral breast metastasis is unreported.
A 61-year-old white female with a 5-year status poststandard therapy for stage IC clear-cell ovarian carcinoma presented with widespread metastasis.
Tissue analysis revealed ovarian cancer metastasis to the breasts bilaterally.
Clinical awareness of this metastatic potential is important when staging and developing a treatment plan for patients with ovarian clear-cell cancer.
