Few cases of ovarian serous carcinoma have been previously reported. Ovarian clear cell carcinoma is the second most common histologic subtype in East Asian countries and is a relatively rare in Western countries. Here, we report the case of cardiac tamponade secondary to Ovarian clear cell carcinoma. A 46-year-old woman with recurrent Ovarian clear cell carcinoma presented with worsening cough, palpitations, and shortness of breath during chemotherapy. Chest radiography and computed tomography confirmed a pleural effusion with cardiac tamponade. The patient underwent pericardial fenestration and drainage for cardiac tamponade. Pericardial fluid cytology showed malignant cells forming papillary and ball-like clusters with irregular stacking. The cells had a mirror ball-like appearance and collagenous stroma, in which a homogenous hyaline core was observed in the center of most tumor cell clusters. Based on these findings, a diagnosis of Ovarian clear cell carcinoma metastasis was made. She received palliative care and died 5 months after the operation without recurrent cardiac tamponade. This case suggests that cytological findings from pericardial effusion are useful in diagnosing Ovarian clear cell carcinoma metastasis.}, pages = {459--462}, title = {Malignant Pericardial Tamponade Secondary to Ovarian Clear Cell Carcinoma}, volume = {66}, year = {2023}, yomi = {オオイシ,テツロウ and ノナカ,ミチコ and サトウ,シンヤ and タニグチ,フミノリ} }
