Serous Tubal Intraepithelial Carcinoma–Like and Pagetoid Tubal Metastasis of an Ovarian Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma: Peculiar Metastatic Growth Patterns of a Rare Tumor
A large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the ovary is presented because of tubal metastases with peculiar growth patterns: pagetoid and serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma–like. The possibility that a tubal intraepithelial carcinoma could represent a metastasis should be considered by pathologists.
