    Area of Science:

    • Gynecologic Oncology
    • Endocrinology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Ovarian tumors can present with diverse histological features, sometimes mimicking primary malignancies from other organs.
    • Malignant monodermal teratomas are rare ovarian neoplasms, often containing elements of a single germ cell layer.

    Observation:

    • A 62-year-old patient presented with a unilateral ovarian tumor, initially suspected as ovarian carcinoma based on clinical and ultrasound findings.
    • Surgical resection revealed a large ovarian cyst containing a soft node; histological examination showed struma remnants and features of follicular and C-cell thyroid carcinoma.

    Findings:

    • Histopathological analysis confirmed a malignant monodermal ovarian teratoma originating from struma.
    • The tumor exhibited areas consistent with both follicular carcinoma and C-cell carcinoma of the thyroid.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights the importance of thorough histopathological and ultrastructural examination for diagnosing rare ovarian neoplasms.
    • Such findings expand the understanding of teratoma differentiation and potential extrathyroidal manifestations of thyroid-type carcinomas.
