ABSTRACT
Papillary endothelial hyperplasia or Masson tumor most commonly occurs within the extremities and head and neck. It is usually of intravascular type, associated with thrombus formation and organization within a preexisting vessel or vascular malformation, but rarely can be extravascular. We describe the first 2 cases of this extravascular type to occur within the ovary, one of which mimicked malignancy radiologically. This condition is thought to represent a reactive phenomenon with reparative response secondary to thrombosis although with an unclear underlying pathogenesis. The prognosis is generally good, with complete surgical resection usually representing adequate treatment.
