الملخص EN

Introduction : Malignant Mixed Mullerian Tumor (MMMT) is a very rare tumor, accounting for less than 1 % of all ovarian cancers. Case Presentation : We present a 64-year-old woman with stage III MMMT of ovary that was treated with platinum-based chemotherapy after optimal cytoreductive surgery.

After 25 months of being disease free, she had a pelvic recurrence and a good response to chemoradiotherapy. Conclusions : Optimal cytoreductive surgery and chemotherapy may be the best treatment in MMMT but more discussion and experiences are needed regarding the effectiveness of radiotherapy.
