Abstract
|
|
|
|
Fibrothecomas are mesenchymal tumors deriving from the ovarian stromal and consisting of theca-like elements and fi brous tissue. They are common, but their malignant counterpart is extraordinarily rare. Classical malignant fi brothecomas are said to show four or more mitotic fi gures per 10 high power fi elds. We have experienced a rare case of malignant ovarian fi brothecoma in a 72-year-old postmenopausal woman. We report a case with brief review of literature.
