Ovarian small cell carcinoma is a rare tumor associated with poor prognosis. Although combination chemotherapy remains the cornerstone of treatment due to the rarity of these tumors, there is no evidencebased consensus for a standard treatment, although in the majority of cases platinum-based regimens are used. A case of small cell carcinoma of the ovary, hypercalcemic-type (SCCOHT), in a 22 year-old patient is reported.
