Cauda equina syndrome in an ovarian malignant-mixed müllerian tumor with leptomeningeal spread.
Overview
abstract
Leptomeningeal metastasis is extremely rare in patients with ovarian cancer, but should be considered in patients presenting with neurologic deficits such as cauda equine syndrome. Given its poor prognosis and lack of data currently on management, additional studies are needed to optimize treatment regimens and improve outcomes.
