Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 11

Abstract

Adenomatoid tumors are rare tumors found in male and female genital tract, and uncommon tumor occurring in the ovary. The typical features of numerous small vacuoles and cystic spaces of the neoplasm; which sometimes resemble the appearance of signet ring cells and vascular lesions. These two features in ovary may cause added diagnostic confusion to that already engenderd by the rarity of this neoplasm in the ovary. The tumor cells showed strong and diffuse positivity for calretinin and other mesothelial markers D2-40. We report an uncommon case of adenomatoid tumor of ovary found incidentally in a 50 year old female. Keywords: Adenomatoid Tumor, Ovary.
