<p>Mature ovarian cystic teratoma with co-existing mucinous borderline tumor is an extremely rare finding in literature. Here, we report a case of bilateral mature cystic teratoma of the ovary with mucinous borderline tumors and intraepithelial carcinoma in a very young, 26-year-old female. The case was diagnosed histologically through immunohistochemical support. The biological behavior of mature ovarian cystic teratoma with mucinous borderline tumor is between those of benign and malignant tumors, having low malignant potential. Since the patient had given birth to a child, a radical operation was performed and no <br />tumor recurrence was observed after one year follow-up.</p>
