Abstract :

Ovarian endometrioid malignancies with sex cord like elements are extremely rare. These neoplasms often get misdiagnosed as sex cord stromal tumors. Although Sertoliform variant of endometrioid adenocarcinoma has been well documented, an endometrioid adenofibroma with sertoliform tubules has not been reported so far in the literature. We report a case of postmenopausal woman with endometrial growth which has been reported as Malignant Mixed Mullerian tumor. She also had an incidental ovarian mass which showed features of an endometrioid adenofibroma with areas resembling sertoli like tubules. This case report is to emphasize the potential of misdiagnosing these entities as sex cord stromal tumors.
