Abstract
|
|
|
Several cases of a-fetoprotein producing carcinoma of the stomach, the pancreas, and the renal pelvis have been reported. Ishikura and Scully reported 5 cases of hepatoid carcinoma of the ovary as a tumor that resembles hepatocellular carcinoma
morphologically and produce a-fetoprotein. They proposed that this type of carcinoma must be distinguished from hepatoid yolk sac tumor. Despite the resemblance to hepatoid yolk sac tumor histologically and the production of a-fetoprotein, the
patients
are elderly(usually postmenopausal), no gonadal dysgenesis or germ cell component is present. Ishikura et al. Considered that hepatoid carcinoma is a variant of common epithelial carcinoma of the ovary. We report a case of primary hepatoid
carcinoma of
the ovary with the review of literature.
