Abstract

Ovarian mucinous cystadenoma of borderline malignancy was consisted of intestinal mucinous cystadenomas of borderline malignancy and Mullerian mucinous papillary borderline tumors. Mullerian mucinous papillary tumors was lined by mucinous epithelium of endocervical type and characterized by papillae architecturally similar to those of serous borderline tumors. These tumors have clinical and pathologic differences from those of intestinal mucinous cystadenomas of borderline malignancy.We report a case of ovarian Mullerian mucinous papillary cystadenomas of borderline malignancy with review of literature.
