A Sister Mary Joseph’s nodule in fallopian tube cancer: exploring the metastatic pathway through gene expression profiling—a case report

Abstract Background A Sister Mary Joseph’s nodule is an umbilical metastasis from an intra-abdominal or pelvic malignancy, associated with a poor prognosis. Three possible metastatic pathways for Sister Mary Joseph’s nodule have been postulated: hematogenous spread, lymphatic dissemination, and dire...
