Abstract
A case of an ovarian mucinous tumor with a mural nodule is reported. T he mucinous tumor was solid and cystic and contained benign, border-li ne and malignant elements. Within the solid area a nodule representing fibrosarcoma was identified. Mucocoele of the appendix was the other finding in this case. To the best of our knowledge this is the first d escription of fibrosarcoma arising in an ovarian cystadenocarcinoma.
