Highlights

• •
  Hepatoid Ovarian Carcinoma (HCO) is rare diagnosis usually treated with debulking and adjuvant chemotherapy with a palliative intent.
• •
  Complete cytoreduction followed by HIPEC has been discussed as a potential curative option in absence of extraperitoneal disease.
• •
  The role of adjuvant chemotherapy is yet to be determined. In our case, a comparable disease-free survival was achieved without adjuvant therapies.
