Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the ovary is a recently recognized subtype of ovarian surface epithelial-stromal cancer that morphologically resembles a TCC of the bladder. The most frequent metastases to ovaries come from the gastrointestinal tract and from breast carcinoma, but metastatic TCCs from the urinary tract to the ovary have been reported. TCC of the bladder is the sixth most common cancer in European and North American countries and its incidence has been increasing. We recently observed a woman, who previously had undergone endoscopic resection of a TCC of the bladder. She was affected by an ovarian bilateral tumor with features of malignant transitional cell tumor, characterized by papillae with multilayered transitional epithelium infiltrating the ovarian stroma. In this study, we showed the utility of WT1 and a panel of immunohistochemical markers in the difficult differential diagnosis between bladder and ovarian TCC.
