Can anyone give me some information on a malignant Brenner Tumor? I would like to find someone who has been diagnosed with this type of tumor.

    Brenner Tumour
    I have not been diagnosed with this but a friend of mine had one. usually they are benign. They are rare tumors. I would ask your oncologist the differences between a Brenner tumour and others. My belief is that the protocols are the same as any of the other ovarian tumours. They are certainly specific to the gonads as that is the only place you find them. Rarely they also occur in men in the testes of course!
