Malignant tumors presenting as an inguinal hernia are rare. We present the case of a malignant mixed Mullerian tumor (MMMT) of the ovary growing into an inguinal hernia sac. In this case, magnetic resonance imaging was useful in making a diagnosis of an ovarian neoplasm growing into the inguinal canal, and to the best of our knowledge, this is only the tenth case of a malignant ovarian tumor and the first case reported in the English-language literature of MMMT of an ovary which grew into an inguinal hernia sac.
表现为腹股沟疝的恶性肿瘤较为罕见。我们报告一例卵巢恶性混合性苗勒管肿瘤(MMMT)长入腹股沟疝囊的病例。在此病例中,磁共振成像有助于诊断长入腹股沟管的卵巢肿瘤,据我们所知,这仅是第十例恶性卵巢肿瘤,也是英文文献中首例报道的卵巢MMMT长入腹股沟疝囊的病例。
