【 摘 要 】

Ovarian cancer represents one of the most aggressive gynecological malignancies affecting women worldwide, associated with significant rates of cancer related death within the first years after the initial diagnostic. The poor survival rates are usually explained by the presence of disseminated lesions even from the beginning. In such situations, the digestive tube is one of the most commonly involved territory, therefore necessitating extended resections in order to achieve complete cytoreduction. The aim of this paper is to report the case of a 53 year old patient who was diagnosed with peritoneal carcinomatosis from ovarian cancer, presenting multiple levels of digestive tract involvement due to the presence of disseminated tumoral masses. Therefore the patients was submitted to multiple digestive resections represented by parcelar gastrectomy, segmental ileal resection and subtotal colectomy. In order to minimize the risks of developing severe postoperative complications – due to the relatively high number of anastomoses – the continuity of the digestive tract was established by a terminal ileostomy, considering that creation of a ileorectal anastomosis would be too dangerous in the context of multiple digestive resections. The postoperative evolution was simple, the patient being further submitted to adjuvant treatment.
