why does Krukenberg tumour occur solely contained by the ovaries and never transpire within any other pelvic organ?

Specifically, Krukenberg's tumor is a metastasis of stomach cancer to the ovary. Probably the name of the guy that first described it. Pancoast tumor is a tumor surrounded by the apex of the lungs. It's just one of those "let's identify this for a person to verbs everyone" things.
because that is the dub for a tumor in the ovary.
