Mucinous tumors of the ovary are incidentally associated with ovarian sarcoma. Several cases of sarcoma-like mural nodules in ovarian mucinous tumors have been described previously, but only two well-documented cases of true sarcoma were reported. The purpose of this article is to report a case of sarcoma occurring in ovarian mucinous neoplasm, which differs histologically from the two cases described earlier. This case is the first of its kind with immunohistochemical characterization.

D003536 Cystadenocarcinoma A malignant neoplasm derived from glandular epithelium, in which cystic accumulations of retained secretions are formed. The neoplastic cells manifest varying degrees of anaplasia and invasiveness, and local extension and metastases occur. Cystadenocarcinomas develop frequently in the ovaries, where pseudomucinous and serous types are recognized. (Stedman, 25th ed) Cystadenocarcinomas
