Abstract

Collision tumors represent occurrence of two histologically distinct tumors adjacently in the same organ without any admixture. The simultaneous occurrence of a serous adenocarcinoma with a mature teratoma is very rare.  In this case report, we describe a rare case of a bilateral serous adenocarcinoma of the ovary with bilateral mature teratoma and serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma of the fallopian tube.
