A Case of Malignant Brenner Tumor

Abstract

The Brenner tumor is a relative rare ovarian neoplasia and the malignant Brenner tumor is very rare. We present a postmenopausal patient with a huge pelvic mass with vaginal spotting. Computed tomography scanning showed suspicious ovarian malignancy and tumor marker studies showed slightly elevated CEA and CA 125. Total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingooophorectomy with omentectomy was done. Histologic diagnosis was a malignant Brenner tumor, FIGO stage Ia. We applied postoperative chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide and cisplatin) six times. And then we report a case of malignant Brenner tumor.
