Recent theories suggest that PRMCa might develop from mature cystic teratomas or Brenner tumors, mirroring their ovarian counterparts. However, only 2 cases of primary retroperitoneal mucinous tumors associated with teratoma have been reported in the literature to support this idea. In this paper, we detail an exceptional case: a 66-yr-old woman with ovarian metastases stemming from a PRMCa that originated in a mature cystic teratoma. The patient initially presented with a long-standing cystic mass in the retroperitoneum, diagnosed as a mucinous carcinoma after surgical removal. Following initial resection, the patient experienced rapid metastatic progression requiring aggressive treatment. Interestingly, the later ovarian metastases exhibited the full spectrum of architectural complexity observed in the initial lesion. This “maturation phenomenon,” frequently observed in ovarian metastases of mucinous tumors, remains enigmatic. Molecular analysis revealed a KRAS mutation along with an ERBB3 mutation, making it the first instance of ERBB3 mutation being documented in this specific entity. This case underscores the importance of thorough data collection and continued research to improve our understanding of these rare tumors.  \nFrom the *Department of Pathology, Hôpital Universitaire de Bruxelles, Université Libre de Bruxelles, Brussels; and †CurePath Laboratory, Jumet, Belgium.  \nThe authors declare no conflict of interest.  \nAddress correspondence to Jennifer Fallas MD, Department of Pathology, Hôpital Universitaire de Bruxelles, Université Librede Bruxelles, rue Meylemeersch 90, Brussels 1070, Belgium.

These tumors form a distinct group of cystic neoplasms, characterized by their mucinous differentiation, which histologically mirrors mucinous tumors found in the ovary1 . Such similarities allow for a comparable classification system, which categorizes these tumors based on their architectural complexity, ranging from cystadenomas to borderline mucinous tumors and ultimately to mucinous carcinomas2,3 . The first documented case of primary retroperitoneal mucinous carcinoma (PRMCa) was reported by Roth and Ehrlich in 19774 . It has been postulated that these tumors could originate from mature teratomas, deriving from primordial germ cells, or from Brenner tumors, which are sometimes associated with Walthald cell rests1,5 .
