BackgroundTo compare the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of ovarian clear cell carcinoma (CCC) and high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC), to distinguish CCC from HGSC.MethodsMRI features (laterality, shape, size, configuration, papillary projection, signal intensity, enhancement, peritoneal implant, lymphadenopathy, ascites) of 40 tumors in 37 patients with CCC, confirmed by surgery and pathology, were compared with those of 62 tumors in 40 patients with HGSC. Statistical analysis was performed using Mann-Whitney and Fisher’s exact tests.ResultsThere was a statistically significant difference in the mean maximum diameter, laterality, and FIGO stage (P= 0.002,P< 0.001,P< 0.001, respectively) between CCC and HGSC. Compared to HGSCs, CCCs were more frequently oval (30/40, 75 % vs 12/62, 19 %;P< 0.001), more often cystic (21/40, 53 % vs 8/62, 13 %;P< 0.001) and unilocular (23/29, 79 % vs 7/31, 23 %;P< 0.001), had T1-hyperintense cystic components more often (18/29, 62 % vs 5/29, 17 %;P< 0.001), had larger papillary projections (5.13 ± 0.4 cm vs 2.91 ± 0.3 cm;P< 0.001), were peritoneally implanted less frequently (P= 0.001) and had fewer ascites (P< 0.001).ConclusionsCCC typically showed an oval, unilocular cystic mass with large papillary projection and T1-hyperintense cystic components. MRI could be helpful for distinguishing CCC from HGSC.
