| Abstract: | Strumal ovarii has been rarely associated with other tumors, such as carcinoid tumor, carcinoma, and primary ovarian malignant lymphoma. We report the coexistence of a strumal ovarii and ovarian involvement by malignant lymphoma in a 70-year-old woman. The tumors were detected 10 years following exposure to ionizing radiation during the Chernobyl nuclear tragedy. |
