Abstract
We report the sonographic findings of a rare benign ovarian tumor in a 69‐year‐old woman. Transvaginal ultrasonography showed a cystic multilocular lesion with a vascularized central solid portion of the left ovary. Surgery revealed an adenomatoid tumor. Adenomatoid tumors are benign lesions of mesothelial origin, usually solid in nature and rarely located in the ovaries. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound 33:233–236, 2005

The five-year survival for women with Stage I borderline tumors is about 95% to 97%, but because of late recurrence the 10-year survival is only 70% to 95%. The five-year survival for Stage II-III patients is 65% to 87%. A more correct staging procedure, classification of true serous implants, and a
