A case report of Hepatoid Carcinoma of the Ovary with peritoneal metastases treated with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy without systemic adjuvant therapy

摘要

BackgroundHepatoid Carcinoma of the Ovary (HCO) is a rare subtype of ovarian cancers where malignant cells undergo hepatoid metamorphic changes and cytologically resemble hepatocytes. There are many case reports of HCO in the literature, and patients with these tumors are almost uniformly treated with palliative debulking and conventional adjuvant chemotherapy. To our knowledge, there is only one case report of HCO complicated by peritoneal dissemination that was treated with cytoreductive surgery plus hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS plus HIPEC), followed by adjuvant chemotherapy.
