malignant mixed Mullerian tumour (MMMT)

Description

A rare cancerous (malignant) tumour made up of both epithelial cells (cells that make up the lining of the body’s hollow organs and glands) and stromal cells (cells that make up connective tissue that surrounds and supports various organs in the body).

MMMTs most often develop in the uterus (womb), ovary or Fallopian tubes (the tubes that carry eggs from the ovaries to the uterus).
