Primary Leiomyoma of the Ovary

Year 2006, Volume: 2006 Issue: 1, 39 - 42, 01.01.2006

Abstract

Primary leiomyoma of the ovary is rare. It is usually reported in women of childbearing age. Clinically most patients are asymptomatic and are incidentally diagnosed. Uterine leiomyomas may accompany ovarian leiomyomas. A 55-year-old postmenopausal woman presented with left-sided pelvic pain. She underwent total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo–oophorectomy with an initial diagnosis of a left cystic mass. Macroscopically, it was a solid, gray-white, tumorous nodule, 1 cm in size, with prominent borders. Histopathologic diagnosis was leiomyoma. In the absence of hormonal therapy, the occurrence of a solitary ovarian leiomyoma without uterine involvement is quite rare in postmenopausal women. Turkish Başlık: Overin Primer Leiomiyomu Anahtar Kelimeler: Histerektomi; leiomiyoma/patoloji/cerrahi; over neoplazileri/cerrahi Overin primer leiomiyomu nadirdir. Genellikle çocuk doğurma yaşındaki kadınlarda bildirilmiştir. Hastaların çoğu asemptomatiktir ve rastlantısal olarak tanı konur. Over leiomyomlarının birçoğuna uterin leiomyomlar eşlik eder. Sol pelvik ağrı nedeniyle başvuran 55 yaşında postmenopozal kadın hastaya, sol overde kistik kitle nedeniyle total abdominal histerektomi ve bilateral salpingooferektomi yapıldı. Sağ overde saptanan, makroskopik olarak kesit yüzü gri-beyaz, sınırları belirgin, 1 cm çapındaki solid kitlenin mikroskopik inceleme sonucu leiomiyom olarak rapor edildi. Hormonal tedavi almayan, postmenopozal bir kadın hastada, uterusta olmaksızın sadece overde leiomiyom görülmesi nadir bir durum olduğu için sunmayı uygun bulduk.

Abstract

Overin primer leiomiyomu nadirdir. Genellikle çocuk doğurma yaşındaki kadınlarda bildirilmiştir. Hastaların çoğu asemptomatiktir ve rastlantısal olarak tanı konur. Over leiomyomlarının birçoğuna uterin leiomyomlar eşlik eder. Sol pelvik ağrı nedeniyle başvuran 55 yaşında postmenopozal kadın hastaya, sol overde kistik kitle nedeniyle total abdominal histerektomi ve bilateral salpingooferektomi yapıldı. Sağ overde saptanan, makroskopik olarak kesit yüzü gri-beyaz, sınırları belirgin, 1 cm çapındaki solid kitlenin mikroskopik inceleme sonucu leiomiyom olarak rapor edildi.
