Abstract

Primary peritoneal serous carcinoma (PPSC) is a rare malignancy of the peritoneum. Clinically and histopathologically, PPSC is similar to serous ovarian papillary carcinoma. Brain metastases (BM) from PPSC are exceedingly rare. We report here a new case of BM two years after complete remission from a PPSC, to make aware physicians about this entity. This case is exceptional; firstly given the rarity of this entity and secondly due to the good response after radiotherapy then systemic chemotherapy with Carboplatin and Paclitaxel.
