Primary malignant ovarian carcinoid.
A case of a primary ovarian carcinoid arising in the right ovary of a 17-year-old female is reported. The microscopic picture was very heterogeneous and there was heavily metastatic involvement of the liver but no symptoms of the carcinoid syndrome. No response to DTIC as part of combination chemotherapy was achieved.
