Metastasizing malignant juxtaovarian tumor with terminal hypercalcemia: a case report.
A juxtaovarian tumor of probable mesonephric origin in an 18-year-old white woman recurred six years later with a pelvic mass and widespread peritoneal metastases. Chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, Doxorubicin, and cis-platinum induced a partial response of approximately one year duration. The terminal disease course was associated with hypercalcemia and disseminated intravascular coagulation. At autopsy, there were extensive abdominopelvic tumor masses with pleural deposits.
