Int J Gynecol Pathol. 2010 May;29(3):239-42. doi: 10.1097/PGP.0b013e3181c187cb.

Abstract

A 39-year-old female presented with abdominal distension. A right adnexal mass was found on physical examination, which was shown to be cystic on ultrasound. An exploratory laparotomy revealed a right ovarian mass, which was removed and a staging procedure was performed. Histologically, the mass was a borderline ovarian tumor with stromal microinvasion and hemangiomatous mural nodules.
