متن کاملFlorid Adnexal Polypoid Endometriosis Associated with Very High Serum Ca - 125 Levels Mimicking Ovarian Malignancy
We report a case of florid polypoid endometriosis presenting with advanced bulky disease in pelvis with serum CA – 125 levels of 7844U/ml. The extent of tumor, CT scan findings, elevated serum CA – 125 levels were suggestive of ovarian malignancy. Histopathology demonstrated endometrial glands and stroma.
