Abstract
Mucinous cystic tumors were discovered synchronously in the tail of the pan creas and in the right ovary of an adult female. Both turners were amenable to surgical resection. The pancreatic tumor was a noninvasive mucinous cys tadenocarcinoma and the ovarian tumor was a mucinous cystadenoma. We feel t hese tumors represent two primaries, an uncommon occurrence, and not a sing le primary tumor with metastasis.
