  • malignant Struma ovarii
    Annals of Clinical and Laboratory Science, 2004
    Co-Authors: Maria D. Navarro, John L. Lovecchio, Steven I. Hajdu
    Abstract:

    Struma ovarii are specialized teratomas consisting of thyroid tissue with various microscopic features, ranging from benign to malignant. We report a rare form of malignant Struma ovarii, composed exclusively of a follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma with capsular invasion, which occurred in a 65-yr-old woman.

  • diagnosis and treatment of disseminated Struma ovarii with malignant transformation
    Gynecologic Oncology, 1997
    Co-Authors: Manjunath S Vadmal, John L. Lovecchio, Thom F Smilari, Irwin Klein, Steven I. Hajdu
    Abstract:

    Struma ovarii are specialized teratomas consisting of thyroid tissue. They may demonstrate all pathologic features seen in the thyroid gland. Malignant transformation of thyroid tissue in Struma ovarii is uncommon and is rarely recurrent or metastatic. We report the diagnosis and treatment of a recurrent Struma ovarii with malignant transformation, and intraperitoneal, retroperitoneal, and hepatic metastases.

  • ANALISIS BIODISTRIBUSI Tc99m PERTEKNETAT PADA KELENJAR TIROID PASIEN Struma UNI NODOSA DAN Struma MULTI NODOSA
    2015
    Co-Authors: Fandi Aulia Ilham, Dian Milvita, Fadil Nasir, Chavied Varuna
    Abstract:

    ABSTRAK Telah dilakukan analisis biodistribusi Tc 99m perteknetat pada kelenjar tiroid pasien Struma uni nodosa dan Struma multi nodosa. Data diperoleh dari 20 orang pasien Struma nodosa, terdiri dari 10 pasien Struma uni nodosa dan 10 pasien Struma multi nodosa. Radioisotop disuntikkan ke dalam tubuh pasien melalui pembuluh darah intravena. Scan tiroid dilakukan menggunakan kamera gamma yang berjarak 10 cm dari tubuh pasien dengan tampilan anterior. Pemeriksaan dilakukan selama 5 menit setelah penyuntikan radioisotop. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa rerata biodistribusi Tc 99m perteknetat pada pasien Struma multi nodosa lebih tinggi dari pada Struma uni nodosa. Rerata biodistribusi pada lobus kanan lebih tinggi dari pada lobus kiri. Kata kunci : biodistribusi, Struma uni nodosa, Struma multi nodosa, Tc 99m perteknetat     Abstract An analysis of bioditribution of Tc 99m pertechnetate at thyroid gland Struma uni nodosa and Struma multi nodosa patients have been conducted. The data obtained from 20 Struma nodosa patients, that consists of 10 Struma uni nodosa and 10 Struma multi nodosa patients. Radioisotope is injected into the patient's body through an intravenous blood vessels. Thyroid scanning is done using a gamma camera within 10 cm of the body of a patient with anterior view. Scanning is done for 5 minutes after injection of radioisotopes. The results showed that the average biodistribution pertechnetate Tc 99m in multi nodosa patients higher than in the uni Struma nodosa. Average biodistribution of right lobe is higher than left lobe.

  • Struma salpingis associated with Struma ovarii
    The American journal of surgical pathology, 1993
    Co-Authors: Syed A. Hoda, Andrew G. Huvos
    Abstract:

    We report a case of a Struma salpingis, a benign teratoma consisting entirely of thyroid tissue in the fallopian tube. This 0.2-cm tumor was an incidental finding in a 44-year-old, clinically euthyroid, woman. The ipsilateral ovary showed a 0.1-cm Struma ovarii, and there was a 7.0-cm mucinous cystadenoma of the contralateral ovary. To our knowledge, this is the second report of Struma salpingis and the first account of concurrent thyroid tissue in both the tube and ovary. Struma salpingis probably arises from germ cells arrested in their migratory path towards the genital crest.

  • malignant Struma ovarii
    Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation, 1997
    Co-Authors: Vincenzo Berghella, Sutini Ngadiman, Heidi Rosenberg, Syed A. Hoda, Rosemary E Zuna
    Abstract:

    Malignant Struma ovarii is a rare form of ovarian carcinoma; only 3 cases of its pure papillary type have been reported in the literature. A new case of malignant papillary Struma ovarii arising in an asymptomatic 32-year-old woman is presented. Due to its rarity, there has been confusion in the diagnosis and management of malignant Struma ovarii. Criteria for the diagnosis of malignant papillary Struma ovarii are proposed. Conservative treatment after a complete staging procedure is possible due to the usually benign course and low incidence of metastases of this tumor.

  • pseudo meigs syndrome associated with malignant Struma ovarii a case report
    Gynecologic Oncology, 2004
    Co-Authors: Gian Franco Zannoni, Elisabetta Tarquini, Valerio Gallotta, Francesco Legge, Giovanni Scambia, Gabriella Ferrandina
    Abstract:

    Abstract Background . Malignant Struma ovarii is a rare tumor, consisting of a Struma ovarii with malignant transformation. The association of a malignant Struma ovarii with pseudo-Meigs' syndrome and elevated Ca-125 levels has been never reported. Case . A 66-year-old woman presented with monolateral ovarian mass, ascites, hydrothorax, and elevated Ca-125 levels. Optimal medical staging was performed. Definitive histological examination revealed a malignant Struma ovarii. The immediate and complete resolution of symptoms and rapid decline of both Ca-125 and thyroglobulin levels to normal value were achieved post-operatively. After counseling, strict follow-up was planned, and no adjuvant therapy was administered. Conclusion . We report the first case of pseudo-Meigs' syndrome associated with malignant Struma ovarii and elevated Ca-125 levels. The choice of not performing adjuvant therapy is feasible after optimal surgery and adequate staging procedure given to the usually clinical benign course and the low incidence of metastases in malignant Struma ovarii. Careful patient counseling is required.
