Management of Borderline Ovarian Tumors: Series of Case Report and Review of the Literature

A combination of ovarian tumors with the same histogenetic origin but different histologic subtype is relatively common, whereas a co-occurrence of tumors with different histogenetic origin is rare. We report a case of mixed ovarian tumor composed of Brenner tumor and adult-type granulosa cell tumor, a combination that to the best of our knowledge has not been reported in the literature until now.

Review Of The Literature

Peritoneal pseudomyxoma is a pathological condition that compromises the peritoneum, characterized by the production of large quantities of mucinous liquid, which progressively fills the peritoneal cavity, originating in general from mucinous appendicular or ovarian tumors. We report a peritonial pseudomyxoma associated with mucinous adenocarcinoma of the appendix synchronic with adenocarcinoma of the rectum in 44 years old patient, where the initial diagnosis was rectal adenocarcinoma. Tumour of the appendix and peritonial pseudomyxoma were incidental and found intraoperativelly. We focus the histological patterns of the lesions, diagnosis and the treatment, with revision of the literature.

Pathologic Finding ◽

Borderline Ovarian Tumors

Foam cell formation is a very common pathologic finding in atherosclerosis, often found in some major organs. However, the involvement of the retroperitoneal organs is very rare and foam cell formation associated with borderline ovarian tumor has not been reported. Borderline ovarian tumors are epithelial ovarian tumors with a low growth rate, low potential to invade or metastasize, and excellent prognosis. Still, a rapidly growing borderline ovarian tumor can exert pressure on the retroperitoneal organs. It may cause retroperitoneal irritation and inflammation, and form a mass lesion in adjacent organs. We report the case of a 41-year-old woman with a borderline ovarian tumor and foam cell infiltration.
