The distinction of primary mucinous ovarian carcinoma (PMOC) from other primaries or secondaries is essential for selecting therapeutic options and prognostication. We aimed to characterize the immunohistochemical profile of 36 PMOCs using an extended immunohistochemical panel, with clinicopathologic features and outcome. PAX8 was negative in 30 (83.3%), and SATB2 was negative in 32/35. HNF1B, AMACR, and napsin-A were detected in 33 (91.7%), 35 (97.2%), and 0 (0%), respectively. MMR proteins and ARID1A were retained in 100%; PTEN was lost in 4 (11.1%). P53 was aberrant in 10 (27.8%); none overexpressed p16. HER2 was positive in 6/35 (17.1%). Most PMOCs had a favorable outcome. However, recurrence is usually fatal. The typical tumor profile was CK7+, CK20+/−, CDX2+/−, PAX8−, ER−, PgR−, and SATB2−. HER2 positivity suggests a possible target for therapy in advanced disease.

Ovarian tumours harbouring foci of anaplastic carcinoma are extremely rare. With just a handful of cases reported in the literature, understanding of the disease and optimal management remains limited. A 38-year-old woman was referred to the gynaeoncologists with a multiloculated complex ovarian mass. High-grade mucinous ovarian carcinoma with mural nodules of anaplastic carcinoma was found on biopsy. Furthermore, an umbilical Sister Mary Joseph nodule signalled advanced metastatic disease. The patient underwent primary debulking surgery and was referred for adjuvant chemotherapy. High-quality radiological and surgical images are included to illustrate the approach taken to preoperative diagnosis and described surgical technique. Our case demonstrates the aggressive and rapidly progressive nature of mucinous ovarian carcinoma bearing anaplastic components. Sharing experience of such cases generates awareness and highlights the need for early detection and thorough investigations to guide subsequent management.
