摘 要:Eight cases of malignant and 12 of benign Brenner tumor are reported, patient ages ranged 31-69 and 39-53 years. The malignant tumor was bilateral in 6 of 8 cases, and the benign in 1 of *** greatest diameter of the malignant tumors averaged around 11 cm, and the benign 10. Six of the malignant Brenner tumor patients died, one was lost to follow up, and one survived for 10 years. Pathologic and microscopic findings were presented in some detail. Based on the analysis of the association between the histologic features and type of Mullerian epithelium, we believe that the so-called Brenner tumor is in effect a tumor arising from the Mullerian epithelium with a tendency to differentiate into vaginocervical type epithelium.
