Ewha Med J 2015;38(1):46-49.   Published online March 26, 2015

Ovarian cancer is generally primary cancer and less frequently originates from metastasis from non-gynecological cancer. Ovarian metastasis from lung cancer represents only 2~4% of all ovarian metastatic cancers. We report a case of ovarian metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer with epidermal growth factor receptor mutation. The patient underwent cytoreductive surgery for the ovarian mass and erlotinib therapy for the metastatic lung cancer. Erlotinib therapy markedly decreased the size of lung mass.

Hyun-Ju Song, Kum-Hei Ryu, Su-Hyun Kim, Su-Jin Yoon, Do-Yeun Kim, Seock-Ah Im, Chu-Myong Seong, Heasoo Koo, Soon-Nam Lee
Ihwa Ŭidae chi 2003;26(2):187-191.   Published online June 30, 2003
DOI: https://doi.org/10.12771/emj.2003.26.2.187

We report a case of extensive stage SCLC with EAS confirmed by immunohistochemical stain of ACTH in tumor cells who died early due to rapidly progressive acute respiratory distress and pneumonia before the start of chemotherapy and corticosteroid blocking agent. Through our case, we learn how important early diagnosis and treatment of EAS associated with SCLC are and hope to apply to other cases from now on.
