Mucinous cystadenoma coexisting with stromal tumor with minor sex-cord elements of the ovary: a case report.
Mucinous neoplasms occur rarely in association with cystic teratoma, Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor, granulosa cell tumor or carcinoid tumor. Several cases of an ovarian stromal tumor with minor sex-cord elements have been reported in the literatures. However, there has been no report about an ovarian mucinous neoplasm coexisting with a stromal tumor with sex-cord elements yet. We report a case of a...
متن کاملSclerosing Stromal Tumor: A Rare Ovarian Neoplasm
Ovarian sex cord-stromal tumors are relatively infrequent neoplasms that account for approximately 8% of all primary ovarian neoplasm. Sex cord-stromal tumors of the ovary include granulosa cell tumors, fibrothecomas, Sertoli-Leydigcell tumors, steroid cell tumors, and sclerosing stromal tumors (SST). Sclerosing stromal tumors account for 2% to 6% of ovarian stromal tumors. Despite the rarity o...

Endometrial stromal sarcomas account for 0.25% of all uterine malignancies. These tumours were originally divided into low grade and high grade stromal sarcomas, but the recent World Health Organisation classification (2003) recognises low grade stromal sarcoma and undifferentiated endometrial sarcoma. Low grade sarcomas may exhibit other forms of differentiation, including smooth muscle and se...
متن کاملImmunohistochemical Characterization of Normal Ovary and Common Epithelial Ovarian Neoplasm with a Monoclonal Antibody to Cytokeratin and Vimentin
Background & Objective: The common epithelial ovarian tumors are classified into serous, mucinous, clear cell, endometrioid, the Brenner, mixed, and undifferentiated types. Cytoskeleton intermediate filament composition of ovarian tissues indicates that the cytokeratin and vimentin are observed in ovarian surface epithelium along with the common ovaria...
متن کاملSerous cystadenoma with co-existing stromal tumor with sex-cord stromal elements: An extremely rare tumor
Surface epithelial-stromal tumors are the most common neoplasm of ovary in the reproductive age and beyond. Less than 1% of epithelial ovarian tumors occur before the age of 21 years while 75% of sexcord stromal tumors (Sertoli and Leydig Cell) occur in the third and fourth decades of life. Serous tumors rarely occur in combination with germ cell tumors, sex-cord stromal tumors or granulosa cel...
