Coexisting ovarian serous cystadenoma with fibroma: A very unusual combination
J Cancer Res Ther. 2023 Jul-Sep;19(5):1474-1476. doi: 10.4103/jcrt.jcrt_2319_21.ABSTRACTSurface epithelial neoplasms are the most common ovarian tumors, constituting around 60% of all ovarian malignancies. They are classified as benign, borderline, and malignant. Ovarian cystadenomas are common benign epithelial neoplasms which carry an excellent prognosis. Ovarian thecoma-fibroma groups are uncommon sex cord-stromal neoplasms, constituting 1.0%-4.0% of all ovarian tumors. Most of them are benign and often found in postmenopausal patients. Combination tumors in the ovary are known. The most common combination is mucinous c...

Ectopic Ocular Tissue in a Mature Cystic Teratoma of Ovary: a Rare Case Report
AbstractTeratomas are tumours developed from germ cell layers, containing derivatives from all three germ cell layers. Mature cystic teratomas are the most common germ cell neoplasms and contain mature elements derived from germ layers. Many previous reports show presence of retinal structures in teratomas. Here we have reported a rare case of mature teratoma of ovary containing corneal, conjunctival, and lenticular structure. A 38-year-old female presented with a 6cm ×4cm×3cm echogenic mass involving left ovary. Histopathological examination of the cystectomy specimen showed presence of all three germ cell layer derivat...
