RESUMO
Brenner's tumour of the ovary is rare, mostly benign. It was described for the first time by Mac-Naughton-Jones in 1898. Von Numers listed the first malign form in 1945 that represents 2 % of tumours. On the basis of a personal report and of 160 cases listed in the literature, we propose to study anatomoclinical and epidemiological elements of this hurt and to study histological particularities and various therapeutic processes. Malignant Brenner's tumour arises mostly in peri and postmenopausal period. Clinical signs are not specific. Histological exam puts the problem of the choice of the histological malignant criteria. Metastasis occurs in half of cases. They are mostly loco-regional. The treatment is essentially surgical. The efficiency of an additive treatment seems to be debatable.
