Primary ovarian adenosarcoma with elevated Ca-125 levels and normal ascitic fluid cytology: a case report and review of literature
OBJECTIVE Ovarian adenosarcoma is a very rare tumour for which treatment options vary. We will consider the option of optimal cytoreductive surgery followed by adjuvant chemotherapy consisting of ifosamide (mesna) and adriamycin to prevent systemic metastasis, and will observe the role of serial CA-125 levels as a follow-up marker. CASE REPORT We report a case of ovarian adenosarcoma in a 38-...
متن کاملValue of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cholesterol assays of ascitic fluid in cases of inconclusive cytology.
AIM To determine whether assays of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cholesterol in ascites add diagnostic value to cytology. METHODS The additional diagnostic efficacy of the biochemical assays was studied in the ascitic fluid from 130 patients, of whom 57 had peritoneal carcinomatosis. All diagnoses were verified by subsequent necropsy and/or histology. RESULTS CEA concentrations over 5 ...
متن کاملApoptotic neutrophils in ascitic fluid.
A 60-year-old man with known hepatitis C, cirrhosis, and mild hepatosplenomegaly was admitted for ascites. He had pancytopenia with leukocyte count 2.6 3 10/L, mild neutropenia 1.6 3 10/L, macrocytic anemia, and mild thrombocytopenia. Elevated international normalized ratio, low albumin, high bilirubin, and elevated liver enzymes were noted. Therapeutic paracentesis was performed, and ascitic f...
متن کاملThe Circulation of Ascitic Fluid
After plasma containing labeled plasma protein has been given intraperitoneally to dogs with experimental ascites a steady and rather rapid movement takes place of the labeled protein into the circulating blood. When plasma containing labeled plasma protein has been injected intravenously into the ascitic dog the labeled protein steadily disappears from the circulating blood and appears promptl...
متن کاملموسینوس سیست آدنوم بزرگ تخمدان، گزارش یک مورد بیمار جوان: گزارش موردی
Background: About 90% ovarian cancers are epithelial and 10-15% of this group are mucinous. The treatment is the hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. However, most of these tumors occur in young women that have not yet given birth in which preservation of fertility should be considered. We present a case of huge mucinous cystadenoma and massive ascites managed by preserving uteru...
