MALIGNANT BRENNER TUMOUR OF OVARY

Lekshmi Vijayamohanan, Sarita Asotra, Kushla Pathania

Abstract :

The most common ovarian neoplasms are surface epithelial tumors, including transitional cell tumors. Transitional cell tumors include Brenner tumor and transitional cell carcinoma. While the benign Brenner tumor is well character–ized, the malignant counterpart constitutes a rare entity, with relatively few published data to date. Primary manage–ment is by surgical excision. Owing to their rarity, the precise regimens of adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation are yet to be established. We report a case of malignant Brenner tumor in a lady who presented with vague abdominal discomfort and inconclusive pre operative work–up, with the definitive diagnosis established by histopathology.
