Androgen Secreting Ovarian Tumors
Other rare ovarian causes of hyperandrogenism include gynandroblastoma, gonadoblastoma, ovarian carcinoid, surface epithelial tumors (Brenner tumor) and metastatic tumors [5]. These tumors are rare representing only 10% of all ovarian tumors. Tumoral cause of hyperandrogenism is suspected when the serum testosterone levels are significantly elevated (>200 ng/ml), rapidly progressive symptoms of...
متن کاملInvestigation of patients with atypical or severe hyperandrogenaemia including androgen-secreting ovarian teratoma.
Approximately 7% of women of reproductive age manifest polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and <0.5% have other causes of hyperandrogenism including congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), androgen-secreting tumour of an ovary or an adrenal gland, Cushing's syndrome or hyperthecosis. The presence of features atypical of PCOS should prompt more extensive evaluation than that usually undertaken. Featu...
متن کاملDifferentiation of Mouse Embryonic Stem Cell into Insulin-Secreting Cell
Purpose: Differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells into Insulin secreting endocrine cells. Materials and Methods: In this study, Royan B1 mouse embryonic stem cell (derived from C57BL/6 mouse) were used. In directed differentiation method, embryonicstem cells after embryoid bodies formation were differentiated into insulin secreting cells. Nestin positive cells were obtained after culture ...
متن کاملOvarian squamous cell carcinoma arising from mature cystic teratoma
Preoperative diagnosis of malignant transformation of an ovarian mature cystic teratoma to squamous cell carcinoma is difficult due to nonspecific tumor markers and imaging findings. This is an interesting case presentation that has prior imaging that demonstrates imaging characteristics of the transformation of a mature cystic teratoma to squamous cell carcinoma.
متن کاملA rare ovarian tumor, leydig stromal cell tumor, presenting with virilization: a case report
Leydig stromal cell tumor is a rare ovarian tumor that belongs to the group of sex-cord stromal tumors. They produce testosterone leading to hyperandrogenism. We present a 41yr old woman with symptoms of virilization and a mass of right adenex via ultra Sonography, and a rise of total and free serum testosterone. An ovarian source of androgen was suspected and a surgery performed. A diagnosis ...
