ABSTRACT
Fibromas are relatively common, hormonally inactive. These solid, generally benign ovarian neoplasms arise from the spindled
stromal cells that form collagen. Fibromas can produce ascites, resulting in a clinical picture (Meigs syndrome) suggestive of
epithelial ovarian cancer. Ten percent will demonstrate increased cellularity and varying degrees of pleomorphorism and mitotic
activity that indicate a tumor better characterized as having low malignant potential.
