Core Tip

Core Tip: We report a case of ischemic stroke associated with ovarian cancer. We have updated the information on ovarian cancer with concurrent ischemic stroke regarding its symptoms, signs, diagnosis, and treatment. Because of the rarity of combined ischemic stroke and ovarian cancer, we provide a strategy for diagnosing and treating this condition.
