Abstract/OtherAbstract:
A 65-year-old woman was found to have the nephrotic syndrome eight months before the onset of a new left neck mass. Biopsy specimen of the mass showed metastatic adenocarcinoma, which was subsequently found to be from an ovarian primary. Operation and triple chemotherapy has markedly diminished the degree of proteinuria. Although uncommon, ovarian carcinoma must be considered in the differential diagnosis of cancer-related nephrotic syndrome.
