What is Krukenberg Tumor: Diagnosis and Pathology about?
A Krukenberg tumor is a rare metastatic ovarian adenocarcinoma characterized by mucin-producing signet ring cells, primarily originating from the gastrointestinal tract, especially the stomach. It often presents bilaterally and is diagnosed through imaging, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry. Treatment involves managing the primary tumor and may include surgery and chemotherapy, with a poor prognosis associated with advanced disease and bilaterality.
