Borderline Brenner tumor with a concomitant mucinous tumor of the ovary: a case report

Abstract

Brenner tumors (BTs) are rare ovarian tumors which are a part of the epithelial stromal tumor group of ovarianneoplasms. Most of the BTs are benign and usually asymptomatic. BTs stand for the 1.4-2.5% of ovariantumors. Of the BTs, not more than 2% exhibit characteristics of borderline (or malignant) BTs. Borderline BTsare usually bigger than benign BTs and individuals typically represent with symptoms related with a unilateralovarian mass. BTs are often related with mucinous cystadenomas or seldom cystadenocarcinomas. We presenta case of borderline BT associated with a concomitant mucinous ovarian tumor
