Collision Tumours of Ovary: A Very Rare Case Series

Abstract: Collision tumours are composed of two histologically distinct neoplasms in the same organ without intermixture of cell types. Here the author present a case series of 4 cases of collision tumours of ovary with brief review of literature. Two cases have a combination of mucinous cystadenoma and teratoma whereas third case is a combination of serous papillary cystadenoma with teratoma and the fourth case has a combination of serous papillary cystadenocarcinoma and teratoma. The cases were diagnosed post-operativ… Show more

“…Collision tumours are more often unilateral, and can vary in size from 2 to 200 cm with a wide age range of 17-66 years. 3 Ovarian neoplasms are classified as epithelial, stromal and germ cell neoplasms according to the cell of origin. Mature cystic teratoma is the most common benign germ cell tumors of the ovaries accounting for about 30-45% of all ovarian neoplasms and 60% of all benign neoplasms.…”

“…It is the only case of ovarian collision tumor composed of three different components reported so far [8] . which is mature teratoma, the possibility of tumor collision is great [9] . Some lesions are small in size and prone to misdiagnosis when attached to the teratoma wall.…”
