[A rare tumor of the ovary: Krukenberg's tumor. Apropos of 11 cases].
The authors present 11 cases of Krukenberg tumour and have reviewed the literature concerning this condition. They conclude that the expectation of cure is increased if the primary tumour is removed early and if chemotherapy, hormono-therapy when indicated and immunotherapy are carried out, preferably together. No treatment at present seems to be specific for this condition.
