Ovarian Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma (LCNEC) is a recently described rare entity, which even more rarely occurs in a ‘pure’ form without any associated surface epithelial-stromal or germ cell component. Cervix metastasis of ovarian LCNEC has not been reported previously. We report here a case of ovarian LCNEC in a 35-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain and amenorrhea. Grossly the left ovary showed a solid cystic tumour measuring 6 cm in diameter. Histological examination showed a pure LCNEC without any associated component, confirmed by immunohistochemistry. Metastatic tumour deposits with numerous lymphovascular emboli were identified in the cervix. A comprehensive review of literature along with the various differential diagnosis is discussed.
