Malignant mixed müllerian tumor of the oviduct.

Malignant mixed müllerian tumor is an uncommon gynecologic neoplasm, especially in the oviduct, where fewer than 30 have been described. We report two additional cases which clinically mimicked carcinoma of the oviduct. Both patients were postmenopausal and had the chief complaint of abdominal pain associated with increased abdominal girth. Presurgical vaginal cytologies were negative and both diagnoses were made only with histologic examination of tissues removed at surgery. As most of the cases from the literature involved low-parity women, the high parity of these women is unusual. Unfortunately both presented with stage III disease and died of recurrent disease 18 and 12 months following surgery.
