Sebaceous adenoma arising within an ovarian mature cystic teratoma in Muir-Torre syndrome

This is the first reported case of a sebaceous adenoma arising within an ovarian mature cystic teratoma in a patient with Muir-Torre syndrome. The pathologic findings and a literature review are presented, including the importance and possible benefits of an early diagnosis of Muir-Torre syndrome. It is proposed that the presence of a sebaceous adenoma in an ovarian cystic teratoma may serve as a useful trigger to consider further history and investigations, with the goal of identifying an important genetic cancer predisposition syndrome.
