Sažetak
Brenner tumor of the ovary is very rare, mostly benign, small, and unilateral. It mostly occurs in elderly women and produces no symptoms. In the last ten years (1994-2004), seven women were operatively treated at Sestre milosrdnice University Hospital in Zagreb for Brenner tumor. Six patients were treated for this type of tumor, whereas in one patient Brenner tumor was an accidental finding. The former six patients underwent preoperative ultrasonography and Ca 125 determination. The patient age ranged from 41 to 72 years. In six cases, the tumor was unilateral. One patient had a mucionus proliferating cystadenoma in the same ovary affected with benign Brenner tumor. The size of tumors varied from 0.5 to 20 cm in diameter.
