Abstract Peritoneum is a serosal membrane lining the solid viscera and hollow viscus of abdomen made single layer mesothelial cells. The most common primaries that spread to peritoneum include gastrointestinal, ovarian, colorectal, peritoneal metastases can be seen at some point during disease course in 15 43%, 60 70% 20% patients, respectively. Other malignancies involving such as primary carc...

Malignant peritoneal mesothelioma is a rare, aggressive neoplasm with a poor prognosis. It simulates a spectrum of conditions and thus poses great difficulty in diagnosis and management. We report a case of malignant peritoneal mesotheolima in a young female whose abdominal CT showed a complex lesion occupying the entire abdominal cavity. This lesion mimicked an ovarian malignancy with peritone...

Xanthogranulomatous inflammation of female genital tract is uncommon and is usually seen in endometrium. Only a few cases involving the ovary have been reported. Its clinical manifestations, imaging modalities, and gross features can mimic ovarian malignancy. Thus, a preoperative diagnosis of this entity is important to avoid radical surgical treatment. We report a case of xanthogranulomatous o...

Sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) was first delineated as a distinct ovarian sex cord stromal tumor in 1973 by Chalvardjian and Scully. It is a benign neoplasm, distinguished from other ovarian stromal tumors by the production of collagen and a pseudolobular pattern, and it tends to occur in the second and third decades of life in diagnosed patients. We discovered two rare cases of SST in post-men...

INTRODUCTION Malignant struma ovarii is a rare ovarian neoplasm composed predominantly of mature thyroid tissue. CASE REPORT A right ovarian tumor was discovered at ultrasound examination in a 20-year-old woman. Complete right ovariectomy was done - histopathological examination revealed papillary thyroid carcinoma arising in struma ovarii (malignant struma ovarii). Patient underwent subseque...

Synchronous ovarian and uterine cervix malignancies are extremely rare gynecologic neoplasia. In the meantime the presence of hepatic metastases originating from cervical cancer is another rare situation, the liver being more often a common site of metastases for ovarian malignancies. We present the case of a 63-year-old patient who was diagnosed with a moderately differentiated squamous cell c...

Approximately one-fourth of the ovarian neoplasms and cysts are diagnosed incidentally during caesarean section. The possibility of borderline tumor or cancer should be considered although existence of ovarian malignancy in pregnancy is rare. We report a case of a rare solid malignant tumor of the ovary incidentally found during caesarean section. Intraoperatively, it was thought to be a varian...

An 80-year-old female presented with one month history of acutely worsening abdominal distention and pain, without features of bowel obstruction. A giant intra-abdominal simple cyst, separate from the ovaries, was seen on imaging. Initial haematological and biochemical investigations, including tumour markers, were normal. At laparotomy, the cystic tumour was discovered to arise from the sigmoi...

Adenocarcinoma ex goblet cell carcinoid is a rare neoplasm of appendiceal origin that contains features of both carcinoid tumor and adenocarcinoma. We report on a case of a 45-year-old woman, post-renal transplant who presented with ovarian metastases from this tumor. This appears to be the first report of an adenocarcinoma ex goblet cell carcinoid in a renal transplant recipient.

Epithelial ovarian carcinoma is a high mortality neoplasm in gynecologic malignancy. It usually can metastasize to distant organs such as pleura, liver, lung, and lymph nodes. However, the skin metastases are not common and related to very poor prognosis. Here we report a 54-year-old patient with ovarian clear cell carcinoma with skin metastases on the anterior chest at 11 months after initial ...
