Abstract

A 53-year-old woman was diagnosed as a giant ovarian tumor that had been growing rapidly during follow-up for liver cirrhosis due to hepatitis C. The tentative diagnosis of the tumor was a borderline ovarian tumor based on imaging examinations and tumor markers; as a result, we planned simultaneous ovarian tumor resection and liver transplantation because of decompensated cirrhosis (Child-Pugh score: 10, class C). Firstly, we resected an ovarian tumor, and subsequently performed living-donor liver transplantation. No evidence of recurrence of an ovarian tumor was observed for 5 years at this writing. Even in a case with decompensated cirrhosis complicated with a non-malignant tumor of other organs, which is difficult to operate due to poor liver function, curative treatment could be safely achieved in a view of both oncology and hepatology.<br>
