Abstract:
Although parovarian cysts constitute 10-20% of all adnexal masses, malignant parovarian tumors are extremely rare. Due to the rarity of this lesion, there are controversies concerning the origin, clinical behavior, and prognosis of these tumors. Currently, it is suggested that these paovarian tumors should be treated similarly to their ovarian counterparts. We experienced one case of parovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma of borderline malignancy, and report this with a brief review of the literatures.
