The '''Brenner tumour''', abbreviated '''BT''', is an [[ovarian tumour]] in the epithelial group of ovarian tumours. | |||
==General== | |||

*Traditionally, BT has been grouped within the ''transistional cell tumours'' category in the surface epithelial group of ovarian tumours. | |||
**Recently, [[transistional cell carcinoma of the ovary]] has been related to [[serous carcinoma]]; TCC of the ovary is probably distinct from the malignant Brenner tumour.<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Ali | first1 = RH. | last2 = Seidman | first2 = JD. | last3 = Luk | first3 = M. | last4 = Kalloger | first4 = S. | last5 = Gilks | first5 = CB. | title = Transitional cell carcinoma of the ovary is related to high-grade serous carcinoma and is distinct from malignant brenner tumor. | journal = Int J Gynecol Pathol | volume = 31 | issue = 6 | pages = 499-506 | month = Nov | year = 2012 | doi = 10.1097/PGP.0b013e31824d7445 | PMID = 23018212 }}</ref> | |||

===Epidemiology=== | |||
*Mostly benign clinical course - 99% of Brenner tumours benign.<ref name=Ref_GP437>{{Ref GP|437}}</ref> | |||
*Thought to arise from [[Walthard cell rest]]. | |||
*Frequently an incidental finding, i.e. oophorectomy was done for another reason. | |||
*May be malignant - rarely (~1% of Brenner tumours<ref>{{Cite journal | last1 = Gezginç | first1 = K. | last2 = Karatayli | first2 = R. | last3 = Yazici | first3 = F. | last4 = Acar | first4 = A. | last5 = Çelik | first5 = Ç. | last6 = Çapar | first6 = M. | last7 = Tavli | first7 = L. | title = Malignant Brenner tumor of the ovary: analysis of 13 cases. | journal = Int J Clin Oncol | volume = 17 | issue = 4 | pages = 324-9 | month = Aug | year = 2012 | doi = 10.1007/s10147-011-0290-7 | PMID = 21796330 }}</ref>). | |||

*Classically solid, well-circumscribed, light yellow. | |||
*May be cystic. | |||
Note: | |||
*Borderline tumours classically solid and cystic with papillary projections into the cystic component.<ref name=pmid21897739/> | |||
==Microscopic== | |||
Features: | |||
*Nests of transitional epithelium with cells that have:<ref name=Ref_PBoD1098>{{Ref PBoD|1098}}</ref> | |||
**A "[[coffee bean nucleus]]". | |||
***Elliptical shape (nucleus). | |||
***Nuclear grooves. | |||
***Distinct nucleoli. | |||
**Moderate-to-abundant gray/pale cytoplasm. | |||
*Dense fibrous stroma around nests. | |||
Notes: | |||
*Main DDx of Coffee bean nucleus = [[granulosa cell tumour]]. | |||
*Stromal component may be predominant. | |||
DDx:<ref name=Ref_GP437>{{Ref GP|437}}</ref> | |||
*Benign: | |||
**Endometrioid adenofibroma. | |||
**[[Ovarian fibroma]]. | |||
*Borderline: | |||
**Benign Brenner tumour. | |||
**Malignant Brenner tumour. | |||
**Metastatic papillary urothelial carcinoma. | |||
*Malignant: | |||
**Undifferentiated carcinoma - no Brenner tumour component. | |||
**Granulosa cell tumour. | |||
**Serous carcinoma. | |||
**Metastatic urothelial carcinoma. | |||
*[[Walthard cell rest]] - typically one nest of cells, lacks the surrounding fibromatous stroma. | |||
