title: Magnetic resonance imaging manifestations of ovarian mullerian mixed epithelial borderline tumors: imaging and histologic features in comparison with mullerian mucinous borderline tumors.
abstract: We illustrate the magnetic resonance imaging features of 3 cases of rare ovarian Mullerian mixed epithelial borderline tumor (MEBT) and identify important diagnostic clues based on their detailed histologic, morphologic, and clinical features. Mullerian mixed epithelial borderline tumor has good prognosis, and adequate management is essential. In order to avoid unnecessary aggressive treatment, radiologists should become familiar with the imaging findings of MEBT. To the best of our knowledge, no articles have described the detailed images of MEBT.
