Synchronous Occurrence of Adult Granulosa Cell Tumor with Fibroma in One Ovary and Brenner Tumor in Other Ovary: An Extremely Unusual Case

Abstract

ABSTRACT Ovarian tumors are a common form of neoplasia in women and it accounts for about 30% of female genital cancers. A coexistence of ovarian tumors with the same histogenetic origin such as germ cell or epithelial or sex cord stromal, but different histologic subtype is relatively common, whereas a synchronous occurrence of tumors with different histogenetic origin is rare. We report a case of 58-year-old woman with the synchronous presentation of adult granulosa cell tumor with fibroma (ovarian tumors with the same origin (sex cord stromal) but different histologic type) in one ovary and Brenner tumor (epithelial origin) in other ovary. Our patient presented with postmenopausal bleeding and was diagnosed with this rare combination of ovarian tumors on histopathology supplemented with immunohistochemistry. On extensive literary search, there is only a single report of mixed ovarian tumor composed of Brenner tumor and adult-type granulosa cell tumor. Our case is different from the above-mentioned report as although, in our patient both tumors coexisted, but in contralateral ovaries.
