Female adnexal tumor of probable wolffian origin is a rare neoplasm that ca
n present diagnostic difficulties. We report herein a case of a 60-year-old
woman with female adnexal tumor of probable wolffian origin arising within
the leaves of a broad ligament and, 5 years later, presenting with metasta
sis to the liver. The morphologic, immunohistochemical, ultrastructural, an
d DNA ploidy findings of the original and metastatic tumor, differential di
agnoses, and the results of the English-language literature review are pres
ented.
