E H Pace et al. Int J Gynecol Pathol. 1984.

Abstract

A case of xanthogranulomatous oophoritis is presented. The patient is a 26-year-old woman who had a 10-year history of pelvic inflammatory disease. The pathogenesis of this lesion appears similar to that of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis. Ultrastructural findings are presented and xanthogranulomatous lesions of the female genital tract are reviewed.
