Sebaceous carcinoma arising within an ovarian cystic mature teratoma.
A 77-year-old woman presented with an abdominal swelling and underwent a total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and omentectomy for a left ovarian tumor. This was an ovarian mature cystic teratoma in which had developed a sebaceous cell carcinoma. This is a rare form of ovarian malignancy whose behavior is poorly documented. The treatment and follow-up of this case are discussed.
