Abstract
-
Strumal carcinoid of ovary is an unusual form of monodermal ovarian teratoma with thyroid-like follicles admixed with typical carcinoid tumor pattern. Most of them arise in dermoid cyst or in mature solid teratoma. Recently we experienced a case of strumal carcinoid postoperatively and report this case with a brief review of the concerned literatures.
