Ovarian Large Cell Neuroendocrine Carcinoma Associated with Endocervical-like Mucinous Borderline Tumor - A Case Report and Literature Review -
نویسندگان
چکیده
Primary ovarian large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is a rare tumor with a very poor prognosis and is included in the miscellaneous group category of the World Health Organization tumor classification. Most of these tumors are associated with other epithelial neoplasm. To the best of our knowledge, 30 cases have been reported in the English literature. LCNEC associated with a pure mucinous borderline tumor of endocervical-like type has previously not been described. Here, we present a case of LCNEC of the ovary associated with endocervicallike mucinous borderline tumor.

In patients with mucinous adenocarcino...
