“…In 26 out of 46 reported cases hysterectomy with bilateral salpingooophorectomy was performed. [1][2][3]6,[8][9][10][13][14][15][17][18][19][20][21]24,26,[29][30][31][32]35,39,40 The differential diagnosis of xanthogranulomatous salpingitis and oophoritis includes both non-neoplastic and neoplastic conditions. The non-neoplastic conditions are mainly infections such as tuberculosis and fungal infections and malakoplakia that need to be ruled out by cultural studies and special stains such as periodic acid Schiff stain, gram stain and acid-fast stains.…”

Xanthogranulomatous inflammation of ovary is a rare disease that is characterized by presence of large number of lipid laden macrophages with an admixture of neutrophils, lymphocytes, plasma cells and multinucleated giant cells. It is misdiagnosed as ovarian tumour that leads to extensive surgery including hysterectomy. In this report we describe a case of Xanthogranulomatous salpingo-oophoritis along with review of literature.

“…Xanthogranulomatous inflammation involving the female genital tract is rare and only impacts the endometrium. In the female genital tract, endometrium, fallopian tubes, or ovaries may be affected locally or completely by xanthogranulomatous inflammation, which, because of its rarity, could be misinterpreted for a malignant lesion and clinically manifests as a tumour in the pelvic cavity that extends to the surrounding tissues [4].…”

Xanthogranulomatous oophoritis is a rare, chronic and non-neoplastic condition in which a heavy foamy histiocyte inflammatory infiltrate admixed with neutrophils, plasma cells, multinucleated giant cells, fibroblasts and foci of necrosis causing extensive tissue damage and organ destruction. The gallbladder and kidney are just two examples of the different organs that exhibit histological changes resembling xanthogranulomatous alteration. The present case involved a 40-year-old female who presented with a tuboovarian mass and was ultimately diagnosed with xanthogranulomatous oophritis, despite initial clinicoradiological suspicions for malignancy. Xanthogranulomatous oophritis is a significant entity because, clinically and radiographically, it resembles tumours of the ovary and hinges on a careful histopathological analysis to establish a diagnosis.
