MR Imaging Findings of Extraovarian Endocervical Mucinous Borderline Tumors Arising from Pelvic Endometriosis
نویسندگان
چکیده
We report MR imaging findings of a rare case of endocervical mucinous borderline tumor (MBT) involving the cul-de-sac and left fallopian tube arising from extensive pelvic endometriosis with pathologic correlation in a 35-year-old woman presented with vague pelvic pain. Endocervical MBT is a type of endometriosis-associated carcinoma. Imaging findings of endocervical MBT are unilocular or oligolocular cystic lesions with enhancing mural nodules, which are different from those of the more common intestinal type MBT.

Background: Ovarian mucinous borderline tumors are divided into two morphologic groups: endocervical-like and intestinal type. Most endocervical adenocarcinomas exhibit mucinous and/or endometrioid differentiation, they infrequently metastasize to the ovaries but may simulate primary ovarian tumors (both atypical proliferative or borderline and carcinoma). In patients with mucinous adenocarcino...
متن کاملReactivity of CA19-9 and CA125 in histological subtypes of epithelial ovarian tumors and ovarian endometriosis.
Previous reports have shown that some ovarian endometrioid adenocarcinomas and ovarian clear cell adenocarcinomas derive from ovarian endometriosis (OE), and that endocervical-like mucinous borderline ovarian tumors are associated with OE. We examined the relationship between the staging and histological subtypes of OE or epithelial ovarian tumors (EOT) and the serum levels of carbohydrate anti...

Borderline ovarian tumors (BOT) consist of epithelial ovarian lesions that express cytological features of malignancy, but unlike malignant ovarian tumors, do not show obvious stromal invasion. The tumor incidence is between 1.8 and 4.8 per 100,000 females per year. The two major groups of BOT include serous BOT (S-BOT) and mucinous BOT (M-BOT). S-BOTs are divided into two categories: tumors li...
متن کاملNonovarian gynecologic cysts: MR imaging findings.
MR imaging has improved the detection and characterization of cysts arising in the ovaries. Although they are less common, cysts also can develop in the endocervical glands (nabothian cysts), labia (Bartholin’s cysts), vaginal wall (Gartner’s cysts), and broad ligament (paratubal cysts). Findings on pelvic MR imaging were reviewed to determine the preyalence and MR features of gynecologic cysts...

as a tumor composed of admixed benign epithelial and malignant nonepithelial components, and this tumor usually develops as a solitary lesion in the uterine corpus (1). These neoplasms can develop in the endometrial tissue as well as in the ectopic foci of endometriosis. Rare extrauterine müllerian adenosarcomas have been reported to arise in the ovary, cervix, vagina, pelvis, bladder and colon...
