Borderline Mucinous Tumor with Benign Brenner Tumor in an Ovarian mass - A Case Report and Review of Literature

Abstract

Different groups of neoplastic and non-neoplastic conditions arise from the ovaries and the epithelial tumors such as Mucinous and Brenner tumors are rare neoplastic category. We present a case report of 72 year old postmenopausal woman who presented with progressively worsening abdominal discomfort and distention, diagnosed with huge Borderline Mucinous Tumor associated with Benign Brenner Tumor and also review the reported articles about this rare occurrence. Mucinous neoplasms of the ovary represent 10%–15% of ovarian neoplasms and about 80% of them are benign. Brenner tumors are a relatively rare epithelial neoplasm of the ovary that usually affect postmenopausal women and most of them are benign. Coexistence of Borderline Mucinous tumor with Benign Brenner tumor is a rare mixed epithelial tumor of the ovary. Keywords: Mucinous cystadenoma, Brenner tumor, Ovarian tumor
