Stage 3C carcinosarcoma is ovarian cancer. This cancer, if bad enough, can even spread to the colon. Cysts can be developed during this stage.

Stage 3C is a type of cancer that has spread to other nearby parts of the body. Carcinosarcoma is a type of cancer that mixes carcinoma (epithelial tissue, like skin) and sarcoma (connective tissue, like bone and fat). 3C is part of the older FIGO cancer staging system and is most often used for cervical and uterine cancers.

Cancer staging is a ranking system, ranging from 1 to 4, which describes the progression of cancer. Stage 3 is highly advanced but localized cancer. "3C" indicates a clinical or external diagnosis rather than one achieved by surgery or extraction from the tumor itself. Carcinosarcoma describes a cancer which combines skin or organ lining combined with fat, cartilage, or bone.
