RESUMO
A72 -year-old woman who complained of abdominal pain and distention visited the emergency clinic of our hospital in April 2014. Computed tomography(CT)showed an omental mass and a pelvic mass with massive ascites. The fluid was removed by abdominal aspiration, and the patient showed perforative peritonitis next day. An emergency operation was performed. The surgical operation showed that the rectum was perforated due to stenosis covered by the ovarian cancer metastases. Aleft colectomy combined with a transverse colostomy was performed. After 4 weeks of rest, 6 courses of tri- weekly TC chemotherapy were administered, and the CA125 level decreased from 140 U/mL to 11.8 U/mL. She underwent a complete cytoreductive surgery in February 2015. She was histologically diagnosed with Grade 2b serous adenocarcinoma. After these 2 surgical operations, she underwent a splenectomy to remove a single metastasis in February 2016 and consecutive chemotherapy. For ovarian cancer, if dissemination occurs, rectal perforation can be a treatment target with a gastrointestinal surgeon's help.
