 Metastatic lesions to the ovary from melanoma are very rare. There have been several published case reports over the years documenting melanoma metastasizing to the adnexa. Ovarian metastases may either be asymptomatic or present with pelvic pain. As with most adnexal masses, diagnosis can be challenging and depends on the quality of imaging. When present, the prognosis is very poor. Surgical excision can be offered for symptomatic management, confirmation or diagnosis, and for cytoreduction
  however, advances in genetic testing and systemic therapy have shown promise in treating this disease. To add to the growing body of literature, we present a case of melanoma metastasizing to the ovary and will discuss the advances in systemic therapy as well as genetic testing for these patients.
