Brenner's tumor. Observations on six cases.

U Urbano, V Facchini, A Gadducci

    European Journal of Gynaecological Oncology
    |January 1, 1984
    PubMed
    Summary

    Brenner tumor, a rare ovarian neoplasm, presents unique histological features. Its malignant potential cannot be reliably predicted by histology alone, emphasizing the need for careful clinical and pathological assessment.

    Area of Science:

    • Gynecologic Oncology
    • Pathology
    • Ovarian Neoplasms

    Background:

    • Brenner tumor is a rare fibroepithelial ovarian neoplasm.
    • Its epithelial component resembles the urinary tract's transitional epithelium.
    • The histogenesis and behavior of Brenner tumors remain subjects of ongoing research.

    Observation:

    • This study details the clinical and anatomopathological features of six Brenner tumor cases.
    • One of the observed cases was malignant, resulting in patient mortality 18 months post-diagnosis.
    • Hormonal secretion, specifically estrogen, is infrequent in Brenner tumors.

    Findings:

    • There is no definitive correlation between the histological appearance of Brenner tumors and their clinical behavior.
    • Histological examination alone is insufficient to determine if a Brenner tumor is benign or malignant.
    • Accurate diagnosis of malignancy requires comprehensive clinical and pathological evaluation.

    Implications:

    • The findings highlight the diagnostic challenges associated with Brenner tumors.
    • Accurate assessment of malignancy requires integrating histological data with clinical presentation and follow-up.
    • Further research is needed to elucidate the factors influencing Brenner tumor behavior and improve diagnostic accuracy.
