摘要
This study describes the ultrasound appearances and pathologic characteristics of ovarian strumal carcinoid. Twenty-one patients with ovarian strumal carcinoid, underwent ultrasound and histopathologic examinations and their demographic and clinical characteristics were recorded. A pelvic mass typical of other ovarian tumors was seen on ultrasound, but microscopy revealed proliferating follicular thyroid and carcinoid cells. Via immunohistochemical analysis, carcinoid components stained positively for synuclein, chromogranin A, and thyroid transcription factor-1. In summary, ovarian strumal carcinoid is a rare intermediate germ cell tumor with highly specific clinicopathologic characteristics. Its diagnosis is determined by histopathologic features and immunohistochemical phenotype.
