Abstract

A 20-year-old female patient presented with the complaint of pelvic pain. Radiological studies showed a cystic mass in the left ovary. Histological examination revealed a myxoid tumor with a chicken wire-like, thin vascularization. The diagnosis of the lesion, morphologically resembling myxoid liposarcoma was supported by demonstration of rearrangement of the DDIT3 gene by fluorescence in situ hybridization.

Keywords: DDIT3; fluorescence in situ hybridization; myxoid liposarcoma; ovary.
