This article presents a case of a 47-year-old woman, operated on for emergency reasons due to a giant painful ovarian tumour, showing preoperatively no signs of malignancy. Surprisingly, a pathological report showed MOT coexisting with an early-stage ovarian adenocarcinoma developing as an endophytic papilloma.

Article Synopsis
- The manuscript details a rare case of a large ovarian dermoid cyst that includes a mandibular structure with three teeth.
- Only six similar cases have been reported previously, making this one particularly unique.
- This is the first instance documented where such a dermoid cyst was treated using transumbilical laparoendoscopic single-site surgery.
Fetiform teratoma, another name for homunculus, is a rare form of mature teratoma that is highly differentiated and has parts that resemble a malformed fetus. We reported a case of ovarian Fetiform teratoma in a 38 years old nulliparous woman presented with right side abdominal distention of 10 years duration. An ultrasound revealed a heterogeneous pelvic cystic mass that ranged in appearance from fully hyperechoic to fully hypoechoic, suggesting mature cystic teratoma.
