Neoplasms arising in ectopic ovaries: a case of Brenner tumor in an accessory ovary.
Accessory and supernumerary ovaries are uncommon congenital anomalies of the female reproductive tract. Tumors arising in ectopic ovaries are extremely rare. We present a case of a Brenner tumor that arose in an accessory ovary and discuss this case in relation to the literature concerning neoplasms in ectopic ovaries.
