[Serous-papillary adenocarcinoma with Müllerian neoplasia after prophylactic ovariectomy].
The so-called prophylactic ovariectomy, i.e. the removal of macroscopically nonpathological ovaries during laparotomy or vaginal hysterectomy, does not always prevent ovarian cancer. A case of a 76-year-old woman with a Müllerian tumor is reported, and the literature will be discussed.
