Teratoma is one of the commonest ovarian tumors. Struma ovarii is a rare cystic teratoma which is predominantly composed of thyroid tissue. Sometimes, this tumor is accompanied by ascites and hydrothorax which suggests Meigs' syndrome. In this paper, a case of struma ovarii and serous cystadenoma in one oval}' and agenesis of contralateral ovary with hypoplasia of Fallopian tube and pseudo-Meig...
INTRODUCTION We report the case of a patient diagnosed with a struma ovarii with lymphocytic thyroiditis of her ectopic thyroid tissue. We believe that this case presents an unusual variation of a struma ovarii and a rare presentation of subclinical hyperthyroidism. CASE PRESENTATION A 17-year-old Caucasian female patient who had undergone an ovariectomy and been diagnosed with a struma ovari...
BACKGROUND/AIM Second primary tumors (SPTs) often occur, either synchronous or metachronous. Struma ovarii is a rare ovarian tumor represented by thyroid tissue in the ovary. Among other factors, production of thyroid hormones by the tumor or a shared genetic predisposition can further influence the development of SPTs. The occurrence of SPT, either synchronous or metachronous, following a long...
BACKGROUND Struma ovarii is a rare disease. Malignant transformation is even rarer. Data about its management are lacking. We describe the first reported case of a malignant struma ovarii treated and staged by laparoscopy. CASE A 49-year-old patient was operated by laparoscopy for a right ovarian teratoma. The patient did not show symptoms of hyperthyroidism. The ovarian teratoma was removed ...
BACKGROUND Malignant struma ovarii is a rare malignant germ cell tumor of the ovary. Due to the rarity of this disease, treatment has not been uniform throughout the published literature. CASES We present three cases of malignant struma ovarii. Following primary surgery, all were subsequently treated with thyroidectomy and (131)I ablation therapy, two patients as first line management, one fo...
INTRODUCTION Malignant struma ovarii is a rare ovarian neoplasm composed predominantly of mature thyroid tissue. CASE REPORT A right ovarian tumor was discovered at ultrasound examination in a 20-year-old woman. Complete right ovariectomy was done - histopathological examination revealed papillary thyroid carcinoma arising in struma ovarii (malignant struma ovarii). Patient underwent subseque...
Only 150 cases of struma ovarii (i.e., goiter of the ovary) have been reported in the medical literature. The condition is characterized by the presence of thyroid tissue in an ovarian tumor, typically as a part of a teratoma. We report the first case of Hashimoto’s thyroiditis concurrent with struma ovarii, a thyroid gland with Hürthle cells, and positive antithyroid antibodies despite referen...
Struma ovarii is a rare form of ovary tumour defined as the presence of ectopic thyroid tissue in the ovarian structures. It usually presents with a benign course, although in some cases carcinoma or other malignant tumours can be found in the context of the ectopic tissue. Herein we report the case of a young patient affected by struma ovarii visualized by means of 124I-NaPET/CT. Thanks to the...
Malignant struma ovarii is a rare disease in gynecology and the optimal treatment regimen for the tumor remains obscure. We present a patient who had malignant struma ovarii with peritoneal implants and pelvic structures and liver metastases shown on posttreatment iodine I-131 single-photon emission tomography (SPECT) and low-dose computed tomography (CT). The roles of I-131 ablation in the man...
The association of pseudo-Meigs' syndrome, elevation of CA 125 to the struma ovarii is a rare condition. So far only nine cases have been reported in English literature through MEDLINE search. Here we report a 46-year-old case of the struma ovarii, presented with ascites, hydrothorax, right ovarian mass and elevated serum CA 125 level. These findings were misdiagnosed for an ovarian malignancy ...
