title: Squamous cell carcinoma arising in a mature teratoma with metastasis to the urinary bladder.
abstract: We describe a patient with squamous cell carcinoma arising in a mature teratoma. Magnetic resonance (MR) images revealed a solid lobulated mass attached to the ovarian cyst containing a fat-fluid level. The solid component with extension into pelvic fat showed as hypointensity on T2-weighted MR images with good enhancement. A metastatic tumor to the urinary bladder was also demonstrated.
