Wolffian tumour of board ligament of uterus is a rare, but distinctive, epilthelial tumour of wolffian (mesonephric) origin. The tumour has wide variety of histolgical patterns which mimics like Sex cord – stromal tumours like Sertoli and Sertoli – Ledig cell tumours, Granulosa cell tumours as well as surface epithelial serous and endometriod cancinomas. The tumour may present at wide age range from midteens to 80 Years of age with median age of 50 Years1. Over half of the cases were found incidently presenting as pelvic mass lesion. It is important for the pathologist to know the histological features of Wolffian tumours, in case of huge adnexal mass, to avoid over diagnosis of sex cord stromal tumours expecially granulosa cell tumours, which have high chances of recurrences and needs aggressive platinum based chemotherapy.Though the morphology looks benign, some of the tumours are known for its recurrence and some behaved in a malignant fashion.
