An Umbilical Nodule

An Umbilical Nodule

A 73-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with a painful umbilical nodule that had been enlarging over the past 4 months. In the 2 days before presentation, the patient noted new bloody exudate from the nodule. Physical examination revealed a painful and firm, erythematous umbilical nodule measuring 2 cm in its largest diameter (Panel A) and a palpable pelvic mass. Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis showed a heterogeneous pelvic mass measuring 11 cm by 11 cm by 9.5 cm (Panel B, arrow), moderate ascites, peritoneal carcinomatosis, and a nodule measuring 2.4 cm (largest diameter) in the umbilical region (Panel B, arrowhead). Diagnostic laparoscopy and biopsies of the large mass, umbilical nodule, and peritoneal implants were performed, and pathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma. A Sister Mary Josephโ€™s nodule is a metastatic umbilical lesion in the umbilicus and is typically associated with gynecologic and gastrointestinal cancers. The patient underwent cytoreductive surgery and received adjuvant chemotherapy.
