Summary:Fourteen cases of mixed mesodermal tumor of the ovary are presented. The actuarial survival of patients with these tumors was 2.5 months. Eighty-six percent of patients were stage III or IV at the time of diagnosis. The stromal or carcinomatous component of the tumor could not be correlated with survival. Both our two longest survivors, 14 and 27 months, were treated with surgery and radiotherapy, one patient with and one without chemotherapy.
