Abstract
We present a patient with ovarian atypical proliferative serous tumor and low-grade serous carcinoma, related to KRAS mutation. Bilateral fallopian tubes had papillary tubal hyperplasia, providing additional evidence that it is the putative precursor of low-grade serous tumors. Mutation analysis of papillary tubal hyperplasia has not been done in previous literature. ? 2013 Mosby, Inc. All rights reserved.
