Abstract

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the ovary is a rare subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer. The present study reports the case of a 55‑year‑old patient from The Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Harbin Medical University (Harbin, Heilongjiang, China) who underwent successful surgery for recurrence of a TCC of the ovary with rectum metastases following the initial surgery and chemotherapy. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET‑CT) was used in the pre‑operative detection of the tumor and the post‑operative follow‑up of the patient. To date, the patient has experienced 8 years of disease‑free survival. The aim of the present study was to convey the good survival rate of the patient following recurrent TCC of the ovary, and the role of PET‑CT in detection and follow‑up, in order to aid in the future selection of appropriate diagnostic methods and therapies for this disease.
