Ectopic adrenal tissue in the ovary is a rare entity. We reported a case of ectopic adrenal tissue in borderline mucinous cystadenoma of the left ovary. A 22 year-old student presented with progressive abdomen distension associated with discomfort for 3 months. Imaging investigation was suggestive of mucinous left ovarian cyst. Left salpingo-oophorectomy was performed and the histopathology revealed borderline mucinous cystadenoma with an incidental finding of ectopic adrenal tissue. This is an interesting case because of its rarity and potential risk of neoplasm changes.
卵巢中的异位肾上腺组织是一种罕见的情况。我们报告了一例左侧卵巢交界性黏液性囊腺瘤中存在异位肾上腺组织的病例。一名22岁的学生出现进行性腹胀并伴有不适3个月。影像学检查提示左侧卵巢黏液性囊肿。实施了左侧输卵管卵巢切除术,组织病理学显示为交界性黏液性囊腺瘤,并意外发现了异位肾上腺组织。由于其罕见性和肿瘤变化的潜在风险,这是一个有趣的病例。
