Sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary: A case report

Abstract

Classified among ovarian sex cord tumors, sclerosing stromal tumor (SST) is an extremely rare ovarian malignant tumor which occurs predominantly between the ages of 20 to 40.  However small number of postmenopausal or childhood cases were reported.

Lower abdomen USG and pelvic MRI indicated unilateral heterogen cyctic mass in the 13 year old patient who presented to hospital with complaints of dysmenorrhoea and abnormal uterine hemorrage. This article covers imaging, operation, histopathological properties and distinctive diagnosis of the benign sclerosing stromal tumors (SST).

Öz

Overin sklerozan stromal tümörü (SST),  over seks  kord tümörleri içinde sınıflandırılan ve oldukça nadir görülen benign karakterli bir tümördür. Bu tümörler çoğunlukla  20-40 yaş  aralığında görülürler,  ancak az sayıda olguda postmenopozal dönemde ya da çocukluk döneminde görülebilirler.

     13 yaşında anormal uterin kanama  ve dismenore  yakınması ile başvuran  adolesan  kızda, alt batın ultrasonografisi  (USG)  ve pelvik manyetik rezonans görüntülemede (MRG)  unilateral heterojen kistik kitle tespit edilmiştir. Bu makalede benign sklerozan stromal tümör olgusunun, görüntüleme, operasyon, histopatolojik özellikleri ve ayırıcı tanısı sunulmuştur.
