Imaging of the uterine lipoma and the ovarian tumor. The uterine lipoma was examined by MRI: (a) axial T1 weighted imaging (T1WI); (b) sagittal T2 weighted imaging (T2WI); (c) fat suppression T1WI; (d) enhanced CT examination of the left ovarian tumor.

Ultrasonography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations (Figure 1) revealed degenerative uterine tumors and a left ovarian tumor containing both cystic and solid portions. The uterine tumors were suspected to be lipomatous because of the intensity of T1- and T2-weighted MRI (Figure 1).
Macroscopic appearance of the resected uterus, left ovarian tumor: (a) macroscopic examination following hysterectomy; (b) macroscopic examination of the uterine lipoma on the cut surface; (c) macroscopic examination of the ovarian tumor following salpingo-oophorectomy.

The macroscopic appearance of the uterine tumor was characteristic of a lipoma (Figure 2).
Microscopic findings of the uterine lipoma and the left ovarian tumor: (a) microscopic visualization of fat cells in the uterine lipoma; (b) histological analysis of the mucinous portion of the left ovarian tumor; (c) histological analysis of the solid portion of the left ovarian tumor.

The solid portion of the left ovarian tumor was classified as a Brenner tumor, and the cystic portion was classified as a mucinous cystadenoma (Figure 3).
