We present a rare case of ovarian serous cystadenoma with malignant mural nodules. The patient, a 76-year-old woman, was admitted to our hospital with right lower abdominal pain and swelling which was going on for 4 months. A gross tumor, measuring 20 x 15 x 7 cm in size and containing solid and cystic areas, was found and removed. Inner surface revealed a poor-circumscribed nodule measuring 7 x 5 cm. Areas of hemorrhage and necrosis in the nodule were noted. Histopathologic examination of the mass showed cystadenoma with malignant mural nodule. Cases of ovarian serous tumors associated with mural nodules are very rare, and this is the ninth reported case so far. Copyright © 2011 by Türkiye Klinikleri.
