description | INTRODUCTION: Ovarian cancer is a gynecological cancer with a very poor prognosis despite the improvement of therapeutic means, of which metastases at the colic level are exceptional. We report an exceptional case which makes it possible to enrich the poor literature published on the subject. CASE PRESENTATION: Through this article, we present a very rare case of colonic metastases from ovarian cancer. Biological monitoring and rectal bleeding allowed this rare secondary location to be discovered. Resection then anastomosis allowed our patient to heal. The objectives of this work are threefold: i), to report this very rare case ovarian metastasis ii), to highlight nulliparity as a risk factor in our patient iii), to report that our therapeutic management interrupted and delayed because of COVID 19. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: Our case report shows that we have to take into consideration this very rare presentation and this even in the absence of true clinical sign. Our work reported also another case of colonic metastasis of a primary ovarian in the very rare case described in the literature and emphasizes the importance of surgical management. |
