 46 year old woman with strong family history of ovarian cancer and bilateral ovarian masses.





Submitted by: Ie-Ming Shih - Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD


A 42 y/o nulligravid Asian female presented with increasing intra-abdominal lymphadenopathy shortly after carboplatin/paclitaxel treatment for her previous "ovarian carcinoma" in an outside hospital. Unfortunately, the original tumor tissue was not available to review at that moment. She developed postoperative venous thromboembolism. Past history was significant for endometriosis. The sections were obtained from lymph node dissection.
