Core Tip |
Mixed malignant Mullerian tumours (MMMTs) are rare tumours that normally arise from the female genital tract, with the uterus and cervix being the most common sites. Very rarely they may arise from extragenital sites such as the spleen or the peritoneum. We describe the case of a 74-year-old woman who presented with left-sided upper abdominal pain due to a MMMT involving her spleen. Further investigations revealed additional extensive disease in the pelvis and there was evidence that it specifically did not arise from the genital tract. This case represents a highly atypical presentation of an already rare gynaecological tumour. |
