We report a case of ovarian carcinoid tumor that recurred with multiple liver metastases and was successfully treated with chemoembolization. A 76-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital presented with abdominal distension and abnormal uterine bleeding for about 6 months. She presented with hyperestrogenic and androgenic manifestations such as vaginal bleeding with endometrial hyperplasia and hirsutism. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging revealed a large solid and cystic ovarian tumor of 17 cm at maximum diameter. On the basis of the clinical diagnosis of sex cord stromal tumor containing a mature cystic teratoma, she underwent total abdominal hysterectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. The pathology report revealed that the mass in the left ovary was a carcinoid tumor, insular type, with mature cystic teratoma. Two years after surgical treatment, multiple liver metastases were revealed by abdominal CT. Hepatic arterial infusion of cisplatin was performed for 2 courses, and multiple metastatic nodules have remarkably reduced. No established chemotherapy or radiation therapy treatments are currently available for recurrent or advanced carcinoid tumors. Our paper suggests that chemoembolization with cisplatin may be effective in treatment of patients with multiple liver metastases of ovarian carcinoid tumor.

Strumal Carcinoid

Primary ovarian carcinoid tumors are extremely rare. Ovarian strumal carcinoid is usually derived from mature cystic teratoma, an ovarian germ cell tumor composed of two distinctive components characteristic thyroid tissue intermixed with a carcinoid tumor. The incidence of stromal carcinoid tumor is accounting for 0.3-1% of all ovarian tumors and 3% of all mature teratomas. Herein, we report a 25-year-old female presented with severe abdominal pain. She had right struma ovarii after Laparoscopic-Assisted Ovarian Cystectomy (LAOC) procedure one year ago. The sonography of abdomen images study demonstrated a well capsulated cystic mass measured up to 11 cm in dimension. The mature cystic teratoma was the first diagnostic possibility. She underwent the laparoscopy-assisted left ovarian cystectomy. Histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations confirmed strumal Carcinoid Tumor of the Ovary (SCTO) arising from strum ovarii in the left ovary. She was recovered well and was still asymptomatic after two years follow-up. In conclusion, we first describe the primary SCTO arising from a heterochronous struma ovarii. The symptoms of SCTO are usually non-specific and misleading. Therefore, it is important to fully understand the characteristics, diagnosis and management of SCTO. Diagnosis should be confirmed by pathology and immunohistochemistry, and clinically metastatic carcinoid should be excluded.

Introduction. Coexistence of carcinoid tumor inside a mature cystic teratoma is an extremely rare phenomenon, especially in young women. We present the case of a 28-year-old woman diagnosed with a right ovarian carcinoid and treated uneventfully with conservative surgical approach.Case Report. A 28-year-old woman, gravid 0, parity 0, presented to our department for her annual gynecological examination and Pap smear test. During her examination, a mobile cystic mass was detected in the right lower abdomen. Ultrasound indicated a right ovarian mass 10.5 × 6.3 cm, confirmed by CT scan. Further investigation revealed AFP levels (1539 ng/mL). The ovarian mass was excised by laparoscopy, leaving intact the remaining right ovary. Frozen sections showed a mature cystic teratoma. However, paraffin sections revealed the presence of a small carcinoid within the teratoma’s gastric-type mucosa. The patient was set to a close followup. Nine months postoperatively, ultrasound pelvis imaging and CT scan of the abdomen as well as serum tumor markers have shown no evidence of recurrence disease.Conclusion. Despite the weak evidence, fertility spare surgical approach for women wanting to preserve their genital tract might be a reasonable option.
