Benign cystadenofibroma

Last edited: 4/10/2026

Overview

Cystadenofibroma is a benign ovarian neoplasm characterized by a combination of cystic and fibrotic elements 1. These tumors are histologically benign despite potential multicentricity or diffuse pelvic involvement 1.

Diagnosis

  • Histologic examination is key to diagnosis 1.
  • Electron microscopy may be used to investigate potential mesothelial origin 1.
  • Management

  • Management strategies are not detailed in the provided abstracts.
  • Special Populations

  • Multicentric ovarian and diffuse pelvic cystadenofibroma has been described 1.
  • Key Recommendations

  • Histologic findings of cystadenofibroma are benign, even in cases of multicentricity or diffuse pelvic involvement 1. (Evidence: Weak)
  • The potential mesothelial origin of cystadenofibroma can be investigated using electron microscopy 1. (Evidence: Weak)
