Abstract

Only one case of lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the ovary has been reported so far. A new case is herein illustrated in a 69-year-old woman: an ovarian mass adherent to urinary bladder dome with peritoneal carcinomatosis. Histologically, undifferentiated carcinomatous areas were intermingled with abundant lymphoid tissue. Epstein-Barr virus has not been detected either in neoplastic or in lymphoid cells.
