Abstract
|
|
|
|
Primary broad ligament tumors are a rare entity, although secondary involvement of broad ligament by a malignancy arising elsewhrere in the abdomen/pelvis is common. Among the primary broad ligament tumors, leiomyoma is the most frequent histopathological type followed by serous papillary cystadenoma of borderline malignancy. Primary sarcomas and high-grade carcinomas have been extremely rarely reported. Because of the rarity of disease, its treatment policy, follow-up strategy and prognosis are yet to be established and it is managed as an ovarian malignancy. We had experienced a case of clear cell adenocarcinoma arising from broad ligament and report this case with a brief review of literature.
