ABSTRACT
A metastatic condition involving signet ring cells rich in mucin is the Krukenberg tumor, which affects the ovaries. Usually, the metastatic disease does not include both ovaries and usually originates from the stomach side, while it can also occur less frequently from other locations. Krukenberg tumors are uncommon in younger age groups and usually occur after the age of 40. We report a case of a 34-year-old female patient with a primary form of past medical history. The patient was treated with multiple rounds of chemotherapy.
