Ovarian cancer, light micrograph C015 / 7103
Ovary cancer. Light micrograph of a section through a Krukenberg tumour (down centre) of the ovary. This is a secondary cancer that spreads (metastasises) from the digestive system, often affecting both ovaries. It contains signet ring cells with the nucleus at the edge (two at right) due to accumulation of mucus in the cytoplasm. This is a rare condition that typically affects older women. Treatment involves surgical removal and therapy for the original tumour

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a light micrograph of ovarian cancer, specifically a section through a Krukenberg tumor. The image reveals the devastating impact of this secondary cancer that originates in the digestive system and often affects both ovaries. The Krukenberg tumor is characterized by the presence of signet ring cells, which can be observed in this micrograph with their nuclei positioned at the edge due to an accumulation of mucus in the cytoplasm. This rare condition primarily affects older women and necessitates surgical removal along with therapy for the original tumor. The stained sectioned sample depicted here provides valuable insights into histopathology, oncology, and gynecology. It serves as a crucial tool for medical professionals involved in diagnosing and treating malignant tumors within the female reproductive system. With its intricate details captured under a light microscope, this image offers an opportunity to study neoplastic growths within the ovary. By understanding how ovarian cancers metastasize and manifest as Krukenberg tumors, healthcare providers can develop more effective treatment strategies for patients facing this challenging disease. This photograph represents just one example of Science Photo Library's vast collection dedicated to advancing scientific knowledge and promoting better healthcare practices worldwide.
