Diagnostic Significance of Cellular Neuroglial Tissue in Ovarian Immature Teratoma
BACKGROUND Immature teratoma (IT) is a tumor containing immature neuroectodermal tissue, primarily in the form of neuroepithelial tubules. However, the diagnosis of tumors containing only cellular neuroglial tissue (CNT) without distinct neuroepithelial tubules is often difficult, since the histological characteristics of immature neuroectodermal tissues remain unclear. Here, we examined the si...
متن کاملPediatric Ovarian Growing Teratoma Syndrome
Ovarian immature teratoma is a germ cell tumor that comprises less than 1% of ovarian cancers and is treated with surgical debulking and chemotherapy depending on stage. Growing teratoma syndrome (GTS) is the phenomenon of the growth of mature teratoma elements with normal tumor markers during or following chemotherapy for treatment of a malignant germ cell tumor. These tumors are associated wi...
متن کاملRectal Teratoma coexistent with an Ovarian Teratoma: A Case Report
the three germinal layers. Although teratomas involving the ovary, testicle, and retroperitoneum are frequently found, rectal involvement is extremely rare. There have only been about 50 cases of primary rectal teratoma reported since 1864 (1). Herein, we present the radiologic features of a rectal teratoma that was identified with an asymptomatic ovarian teratoma and correctly diagnosed preope...
متن کاملDoes Gestrinone Antagonize the Effects of Estrogen on Endometrial Implants Upon the Peritoneum of Rats?
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of estrogen treatment in combination with gestrinone on an experimental rat model of endometriosis. METHODS Uterine transplants were attached to the peritoneum of female Wistar rats via a surgical autotransplantation technique. The implanted area was measured during the proestrus phase and after hormonal treatment. We performed morphometric analysis and exami...
متن کاملGliomatosis peritonei caused by ovarian teratoma.
A case of ovarian teratoma which produced glial peritoneal deposits is described. Twelve other cases in the literature are tabulated. The age at presentation ranges from 22 months to 22 years (mean age 14.6 years). The primary tumour may be solid or cystic. The prognosis does not appear to be improved by radical surgery as opposed to simple excision but depends mainly on the maturity of the tis...
