Abstract:
The finding of osseous metaplasia within an ovarian papillary serous cystadenocarcinoma is very rare. A review of the medical literature reveals only two previously published cases where mature bone was found in an ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma. This report presents an additional case of this unusual phenomenon whose clinical significance remains uncertain.
