  • Title: Androgen-producing, atypically proliferating endometrioid tumor arising in endometriosis.
    Author: Powell JL, Connor GP, Henderson GS.
    Journal: South Med J; 2001 Apr; 94(4):450-3. PubMed ID: 11332919.
    Abstract:
    A case of androgen-secreting borderline endometrioid tumor arising in endometriosis of the rectovaginal septum is presented. It occurred 10 years after total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy for extensive endometriosis of the fallopian tubes and ovaries, adenomyosis, and leiomyomas of the uterus. We believe 7 years of unopposed continuous oral estrogen replacement therapy contributed to the malignant transformation of the endometriosis.
