Sclerosing Stromal Tumor of the Ovary -A report of 3 cases-

Abstract
|
|
|
Three cases of scterosing stromal tumor of the ovary are presented. At three patients
were nulliparous young women of 23∼25 years of age, presenting with menstrual
irregularity for 6 months to 4 years. Grossly the tumors ranged in size from 8 to 22 cm
in greatest diameter, showing gray white to yellow solid or predominantly cystic tissue
with serous fluid. The common microscopic finding was that of cellular areas admixed
with densel fibrous and/or edematous tissue, presenting pseudolobular appearance.
Two types of tumor cells were rounded cells with clear vacuolated cytoplasm and less
numerous spindle shaped cells. Postoperative course was uneventful and menstrual
irregularity disappeared postoperatively.
In case 2, the patient got pregnant after 1 year and 4 months. This clinical course
suggests that sclerosing stromal tumor of the ovary may be endocrinologically active.
