Collision tumor: serous cystadenocarcinoma and dermoid cyst in the same ovary

Abstract: We present a case of 45-year-old parous woman with a left dermoid cyst, with unusual imaging findings, massive ascites and peritoneal carcinomatosis. The patient underwent cytoreductive surgery. The histopathology revealed a collision tumor consisting of an invasive serous cystadenocarcinoma and a dermoid cyst.

“…Most common histologic combination of collision tumor in the ovary is coexistence of teratoma with mucinous tumors. [1,5] Here, to the best of our knowledge, we are describing the first case of collision tumor of right ovary comprising benign cystic teratoma and mucinous cystadenoma coexisting with contralateral benign cystic teratoma presenting in first trimester in primigravida.…”

They must be differentiated from "composite" tumors, which consist of a malignant neoplasm that has differentiated into two distinct subtypes.…”
