Cutaneous metastasis of serous ovarian carcinoma.

Ovarian carcinoma ranks among the top causes of cancer-related fatalities among women in the United States [1]. In the spectrum of ovarian carcinomas, low-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (LGSOC) is a relatively rare form, constituting only 2-5% of all ovarian carcinomas [2]. Although metastasis to the peritoneum and other organs is frequently observed, cutaneous metastasis of ovarian carcinoma is uncommon, occurring in less than 4% of cases and occurring even less often in the serous subtype [3]. Owing to its rare and variable presentation, cutaneous involvement in ovarian carcinoma is particularly challenging to recognize. Patients presenting with skin lesions in the setting of a history of ovarian carcinoma should raise suspicion for cutaneous metastasis. We present a rare case of LGSOC with non-nodular cutaneous involvement presenting as asymptomatic erythematous papules and hyperpigmented patches on the upper chest, abdomen, and lower back.
