Abstract

Ovarian cancer presenting as an isolated pancreatic metastasis after years of treatment is extremely rare. Most such patients are easily misdiagnosed as a case of primary pancreatic cancer. We herein describe a unique case of posttreatment high-grade serous papillary ovarian carcinoma metastasizing to the pancreas that mimicked primary pancreatic cancer and caused a diagnostic dilemma. The approach to such a case, pathogenesis, differential diagnosis, management, and a brief literature review is also presented.
