Abstract:
We report a case of epithelial ovarian cancer, which presented with lumbar vertebral metastasis soon after treatment, as a part of distant spread. This patient was then treated by palliative radiotherapy and put on second line chemotherapy i.e, Topotecan. She responded to treatment well.

Metastasis
Metastasis is the spread of cancer cells from the original site to distant locations in the body. Cancer cells can spread via blood vessels (hematogenous) as well as lymph vessels in the body.
Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition
The epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition or EMT is a developmental process commonly observed in wound healing, embryogenesis, and cancer metastasis. EMT is induced by transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) or receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) ligands, which further...
