Different Staining Patterns of Ovarian Brenner Tumor and the Associated Mucinous Tumor

In this study, we analyzed immunohistochemical markers on Brenner tumors and their associated mucinous tumor to explore Müllerian as well as Wolffian and germ cell derivation, and determine if the mucinous component is independent or related to the Brenner tumor. Out of 32 consecutive cases of Brenner tumors, eight were identified with significant mucinous component and 7 additional cases included foci of mucinous epithelium within the Brenner transitional nests.
