Currently, endoscopic ultrasonography is more commonly used in gastroenterology practices. An endoscopic ultrasonography-guided abscess drainage is one of the interventional procedures performed with endoscopic ultrasonography. However, an endoscopic ultrasonography-guided drainage of tumoral implants has not been reported yet. In the course of tumoral masses, tumoral necrosis develops under the influence of chemotherapeutic agents, and this focus can become infected. In our 65-year-old patient with a metastatic ovarian carcinoma, the infected necrotic foci within the abdomen were drained under the guidance of the endoscopic ultrasonography, a metallic stent placement was performed, and the patient recovered uneventfully.
