“…As presented by us, these tumors are solid, usually developed on a single ovary, with an ultrasound expression like a parenchymatous tumoral mass located in the pelvis, without intercrossing the uterus. 1,5,6 Most Brenner tumors are candidates for surgical resection. Incidence of malignant Brenner tumor is very rare.…”

Brenner tumor, and cystadeno fibroma of ovary are rare varieties of ovarian tumor, characterized by presence of solid components. There are very rare instances where both Brenner tumor and cystadenofibroma coexist in a single patient. A 48-year P1L1, postmenopusal woman presented at Guru hospital, Madurai, with chief complaints of on and off postmenopausal bleeding for 6 months. On ultrasonography there were two simple cysts of ovary measuring 6x 6 cm on left side and 4x4 cm on right side. She was managed with total laparoscopic hysterectomy and bilateral salpingoophorectomy. Intraoperatively there was a right ovarian mass of 6x6 cm size and a left ovarian mass of 4x4 cm size. Left ovarian mass reported as benign cystadenofibroma while the right ovarian mass was reported to be brenners tumor on histopathology. As the preoperative imaging are not completely relied for diagnosing these tumors, awareness of the surgeons of these entities is particularly important. The prognosis of both of these tumors is excellent with suitable treatment. They have a very low recurrence risk on compete removal through surgery.

“…4 Transitional cell carcinoma of the ovary is rare, shows more nuclear atypia than granulosa cell tumor, would be expected to be negative for inhibin and calretinin, and stain for CA-125 and estrogen receptor. 5 In summary, it is important to be aware of the possibility of a pseudopapillary pattern of granulosa cell tumor, as the prognosis and treatment can differ significantly from other lesions in the differential. Consideration of a granulosa cell tumor should be given even when there is a remote history.…”

Background The pseudopapillary pattern of granulosa cell tumor is rare. Case We describe the case of a 35-year-old woman who presented with an initial diagnosis of papillary serous cystadenocarcinoma. Results Evaluation, including immunohistochemistry, led to the diagnosis of pseudopapillary granulosa cell tumor. Conclusion The pseudopapillary pattern of granulosa cell tumor is rare and must be suspected in order to utilize appropriate immunohistochemistry and reach the correct diagnosis. Inhibin positivity is particularly helpful.

Introduction: Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the ovary is a rare and recently recognized variant of epithelial ovarian cancer. It has been described as primary ovarian carcinoma with definite urothelial features, without benign, metaplastic, and/or proliferating Brenner tumor (BT) identified.Case report: A 60-year-old lady presented with low back pain, growing abdominal mass, and loss of weight since 15 days. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of abdomen showed a large ill-defined heterogeneous lesion with solid and cystic components. Beta human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hCG) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) levels were raised. Surgery was performed and primary TCC of ovary was reported on histopathology. Conclusion:Recognition of such tumors is important because of their rarity, favorable response to chemotherapy, and improved patient survival.
