“…Diseases of other organs, use of drugs, profession and social status could not be correlated with the appearance of the tumor. According to our study, the patients' complaints agree with those described in the literature (3,4,6,(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)18). T h e bleeding that appeared in one case occurred because of several changes in the uterus (patient no.…”

Thirteen case reports of mesonephroid clear cell carcinoma of the ovary were analyzed and nine of the tumors were studied histochemically. No disorders were found in the hormonal balance of patients. The tumors produced few symptoms, indicating late discovery and bad prognosis. Histopathologically, the tumors were subdivided into the following groups: glandular, papillary, mixed-type and anaplastic. All of them contained glycogen and neutral mucins; acid mucins were found mainly in glandular tumors, which contained more sulfomucins than carboxymucins. Generally, the most active glandular tumors did not produce sialomucins. No clear correlations between prognosis and clinical pictures, morphology or constitution of cell excretions were found.

“…They were generally arranged in irregular, varying sized groups separated by connective tissue septa, but, in some tumors, they lined compact or widely dispersed tubular or papillary structures (Figs. 1,4). T h e degree of cytoplasmic clarity varied, and the nucleus was either centrally placed, eccentric, or not seen.…”

The clinical and morphological aspects of 32 ovarian tumors of the type considered to be of mesonephric origin have been studied and compared with carcinoma of the endometrium and carcinomas generally considered to arise from the surface covering cells of the ovary. An origin from pluripotential surface epithelium of the ovary or displaced endometrium is supported by a variety of findings: 1. mixed histologic pattern; 2. association with endometriosis, endometrioid carcinoma, and malignant transformation of the surface‐covering cells of the ovary, and 3. histologic similarity to clear cell endometrial carcinoma and of their metastases to papillary cystadenocarcinoma of the ovary.

“…Their possible origins from the mesonephric apparatus were explained and he termed them 'mesonephromas'. Since then, several accounts of these tumours have appeared together with hypotheses about their histogenesis (Jones and Seegar, 1940;Teilum, 1954;Novak, Woodruff and Novak, 1954;Novak and Woodruff, 1959;Parker, Dockerty, and Randall, 1960;Suprun and Soferman, 1960;Welch and Hellwig, 1960;Wade-Evans and Langley, 1961;Lee, Dockerty, Wilson, and Symmonds, 1962;Horowitz, 1964;Villa Santa, 1964;Fawcett, Dockerty, and Hunt, 1966;Scully and Barlow, 1967;Ross and Shelley, 1968;Saavedra and Sandow, 1968). These reports show that both the histological criteria and the hypotheses about their histogenesis have changed.…”

Thirty cases of mesonephroid tumour of the ovary were studied. The differential diagnosis is discussed and it is concluded that mesonephroid tumours form a distinct entity. An attempt is made to correlate the histological appearance of the tumours with the clinical course and criteria are suggested which might be a guide to prognosis. Views on histogenesis are discussed but at present there seems insufficient evidence to justify any particular hypothesis.
