title: Peritoneal dissemination of hepatoid carcinoma of the ovary treated with cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy.
abstract: Hepatoid carcinoma of the ovary (HCO) was first reported in 1987 in 5 cases of malignant ovarian tumors which were similar to hepatocarcinoma in the histological analysis. We report the first case in the literature of a patient diagnosed with HCO treated using HIPEC after extensive cytoreductive surgery, and we discuss the value of this therapeutical option in patients with HCO.
