Epithelial ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological cancer. Serous-type epithelial ovarian cancer, the most common form with more than 50% of cases, is often diagnosed late and associated with a poor prognosis. This is a retrospective study on a patient who was diagnosed with a clinically benign giant ovarian tumor and who was hospitalized in the visceral surgery department "I" at the Mohamed V Military Instruction Hospital in Rabat. The surgical intervention allowed complete excision of the mass (R0 resection). Likewise, we performed a hysterectomy, bilateral adnexectomy, omentectomy and appendectomy without lymph node dissection. Histological examination was compatible with a morphological appearance and an immunohistochemical profile in favor of a high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma. Adjuvant chemotherapy type treatment based on PACLITAXEL 280 CARBOPLATINE 650 spread over 6 cycles. The evolution was favorable in our patient, with a follow-up of one year without any sign of recurrence.
