Abstract: Epithelial ovarian tumors can occur in girls as young as 15 years, but the median age at diagnosis is 63 years, and most cases are diagnosed in women 55 - 64 years of age. Also, benign tumors are more common in young age compared to malignant lesions. Here we present a rare case of a large mucinous adenocarcinoma in a 25yr old woman.
