Abstract

Struma ovarii are specialized teratomas consisting of thyroid tissue with various microscopic features, ranging from benign to malignant. We report a rare form of malignant struma ovarii, composed exclusively of a follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma with capsular invasion, which occurred in a 65-yr-old woman.

Keywords: malignant struma ovarii, malignant ovarian tumor, follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma
