Mature Teratoma

Mature teratomas (MTs) of the posterior fossa are extremely rare. The authors present a case of a prenatal diagnosis of an MT splitting the brainstem. Representative images as well as the clinical and surgical course are presented. Literature regarding “split brainstem” and MT of the posterior fossa is discussed.

Abstract BackgroundStruma ovarii is a variant of monodermal teratoma, consisting of morphologically benign, atypical, or frankly malignant thyroid tissue. Morphologic features may or may not correlate with biologic behavior. Albeit this case report is not unique, ovarian tumor developed with peritoneal dissemination and bone metastasis, which is highly unlikely clinical complication. Additionally, we summarized previously cases of struma ovarii with an emphasis on correlation between morphological appearances, clinical course and providing treatment. Case presentationWe present the 38-year-old patient who was hospitalized for ovarian tumor. The diagnostic laparoscopy revealed lesions of peritoneum, sigmoid serosa and omentum and left ovarian mass. We diagnosed left ovarian mature teratoma without struma tissue and metastatic lesions with struma morphology which can be related to her history of left ovarian struma in 2016. Taking into account the metastatic lesions revealed in 2020, the tumor removed in 2016 was assessed as highly differentiated follicular carcinoma arising in struma ovarii. ConclusionsPrediction of biologic behavior of struma ovarii is still to be to diagnostic challenge, therefore multidisciplinary approach including clinical a n d laboratory findings, radiologic details and histopathological features is required. Providing additional data, the present case report contributes to expending the knowledge of these peculiar neoplasms.

BACKGROUND: Ovarian strumal carcinoid is a germ cell tumour characterised by a mixture of thyroid tissue and carcinoid. Ovarian struma is a very rare occurrence with 0.3-1% incidence of all ovarian tumours and 3% of mature teratomas. Primary carcinoid ovarian tumours are still uncommon as a part of mature teratoma or mucinous cystadenoma. There are four major variants of a carcinoid tumour: insular, trabecular, strumal and mucinous. A strumal carcinoid is an unusual form of ovarian teratoma composed of an intimate admixture of thyroid/carcinoid tissues.CASE REPORT: This is a case report of a 59-year old woman with a 5-year clinical history of perimenopausal uterine bleeding and three explorative curettages. Gynaecological and ultrasound examinations revealed ovarian enlargement with a diameter of 50 mm with hypoechoic zones suspected of benign teratoma. The diagnostic test such as Ca-125, AFP, free-T4 and TSH was in normal range. A smooth, solid right ovarian 50 an mm-size tumour, as well as small amount of fluid in the Douglas pouch, was found during the total abdominal hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and staging biopsy.  The histopathology revealed teratoma with strumal carcinoid tumour IA stage according to AJCC 2010 of the right ovary and negative cytopathology of the fluid from the Douglas pouch. On the postoperative 2-year control, the patient was tumour free, and Ca-125, free-T4 and TSH were in normal range.CONCLUSION: We would like to point out those specific diagnostic tools, such as ultrasound and Ca-125 have low specificity and sensitivity in detection of this rare ovarian malignancy.
