Brenner tumor: A 2 case report; distinct macrocystic change and extraovarian localization

Abstract

Brenner tumors, the histogenetic origins of which have not yet come to light, comprise 2 % of all ovarian tumors and most are benign; about 20% occurring together with a mucinous or serous cystadenoma or a benign teratoma. The existance of mucinous epithelium, first described in 1920 as a Brenner tumor, is sometimes distinct and causes diagnostic difficulties. Rare cases of Brenner tumors with extraovarian localization were also reported. Since cases have rarely been observed, we present 2 different Brenner Tumors; one macrocystic, the other extraovarian-located coexisting with serous cystadenoma.
