Abstract

Benign teratoma is the most common germ cell tumour found in the ovary. One to three percent of these are found to harbour somatic neoplasms,1 of which squamous cell carcinoma, adenocarcinoma and sarcoma account for 95%.2 The first report of a carcinoid presenting in bronchial mucosa, within a teratoma was made in 20183 and we present a similar rare case in a 54 year old female. The patient underwent a total laparoscopic hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Macroscopically the left ovary measured 45 mm, with a smooth external surface and contained two cysts.
