Ovarian adenocarcinoma metastasis mimicking psoas abscess on imaging: a case report

Malignant psoas syndrome (MPS) is very rare with poor prognosis, and usually occurs in patients with advanced and recurrent cancer. Authors report herein the case of a 48-year-old female with history of neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been performed before hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy and ov...

description Malignant psoas syndrome (MPS) is very rare with poor prognosis, and usually occurs in patients with advanced and recurrent cancer. Authors report herein the case of a 48-year-old female with history of neoadjuvant chemotherapy has been performed before hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy and ovariectomy for ovarian adenocarcinoma. She presented 18 months posttreatment with MPS due to a psoas abscess mimicking metastasis confirmed on computed tomography guided fine needle aspiration cytology.
