Abstract

Umbilical metastasis is one of the main characteristic signs of extensive neoplastic disease and is universally referred to as Sister Mary Joseph's nodule. It indicates neoplasm of inner organs mostly located in the gastrointestinal tract or the pelvis. However, in approximately 15-30% the primary tumor remains occult. In most cases, Sister Mary Joseph's nodule appears as an early and sometimes the only symptom of the malignancy. Here we report a rare fine needle aspiration (FNA) cytologic diagnosis of umbilical metastasis of an ovarian carcinoma.

摘要

脐部转移是广泛肿瘤性疾病的主要特征性体征之一，通常被称为玛丽·约瑟夫修女结节。它表明肿瘤主要位于胃肠道或盆腔等内部器官。然而，约15% - 30%的病例中，原发肿瘤仍隐匿不明。在大多数情况下，玛丽·约瑟夫修女结节表现为恶性肿瘤的早期症状，有时甚至是唯一症状。在此，我们报告一例罕见的经细针穿刺抽吸（FNA）细胞学诊断为卵巢癌脐部转移的病例。
