ABSTRACT Up to a quarter of ovarian masses originate from germ cells and many of these are mature cystic teratomas (MCT). The secondary development of malignancy is a rare but well-known phenomenon in patient with ovarian teratomas. The incidence of malignant transformation in mature cystic teratoma of the ovary is less than 2% as reported in gynecological and pathological literature. Here, we present a case of malignant transformation in MCT of the ovary.
