Squamous cell carcinoma in mature cystic teratoma of the ovary.
INTRODUCTION Malignant transformation is a rare complication of mature cystic teratoma, with squamous cell carcinoma as the most common malignancy (in 75% of cases). In this article we present a case of a well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma arising in a mature cystic teratoma and discuss the morphological and clinico-pathological features of malignant transformation in teratoma. CASE ...
متن کاملNeuroblastoma arising in a mature cystic teratoma of the ovary.
A case is described of a neuroblastoma which appeared to arise in a mature cystic teratoma of the ovary. The literature concerning neural tumours of the ovary is briefly reviewed and the grounds for believing that the development of such neoplasms is an indication of the presence of immature neuroepithelial components in a teratoma, rather than a result of malignant change in a fully mature ter...
متن کاملFollicular Variant of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Arising in a Mature Cystic Teratoma of the Ovary
Mature cystic teratomas form approximately 20% of all ovarian tumours. Of these, approximately 15% include benign thyroid tissue. When thyroid tissue comprises more than 50% of the ovarian teratoma, it is termed ‘‘struma ovarii’’. The exact incidence of malignancy in struma ovarii is hard to evaluate, because of its uncommon nature. The aim of this study is to report a rare case of follicular v...
متن کاملSebaceous Carcinoma Arising in Mature Cystic Teratoma of Ovary
Roughly 1% of mature cystic teratomas undergo malignant transformation. In particular, cutaneous-type adnexal neoplasms may occur in mature cystic teratomas. Sebaceous carcinomas, which arise from mature cystic teratomas, have rarely been observed, with only seven cases previously reported. Here, we present a case of a 69-year-old female who had pelvic pain for two weeks and who subsequently un...
متن کاملSquamous cell carcinoma arising in mature cystic teratoma of ovary
INTRODUCTION Germ cell tumors account for 20-25% of ovarian neoplasms. Mature cystic teratoma (MCT) is the most common ovarian germ cell tumor. Malignancy in MCT is seen in 1-2% of the cases. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) accounts for 80% of the cases and carries a poor prognosis. AIM To study the clinicopathological factors, management protocols and its outcome. MATERIALS AND METHODS Case ...
