[Endometrial gestagen effect in patients with Krukenberg tumors--report of two cases].
The paper describes two cases of Krukenberg tumors with accompanying "arrested secretion" pattern in the endometrium. Both patients presented with a vaginal bleeding--in one case a suspicion of Krukenberg tumor was made solely on the basis of evaluation of curettage. In postmenopausal patients whose endometrium presents "arrested secretion" pattern, and who deny any progestagen therapy or substitution, the possibility of an ovarian metastatic tumor should be taken into account.
