Transvaginal color Doppler sonography and CA-125 elevation in a patient with ovarian Thecoma and ascites.
Gynecologic oncology, 1992Co-Authors: Laura Williams, Arthur C. Fleischer, Howard W. JonesAbstract:A postmenopausal patient presented with a pelvic mass and ascites. The CA-125 level was 329 U/ml, and transvaginal color Doppler sonography of the tumor vasculature suggested malignancy. At laparotomy, a luteinized Thecoma and cytologically benign ascites were found. On rare occasions ovarian Thecoma may be associated with ascites without hydrothorax. Preoperative evaluation of the patient with ascites and a pelvic mass may suggest malignancy, but histologic confirmation is necessary to exclude this rare association.

Luteinized Thecoma (Thecomatosis) with sclerosing peritonitis: a systematic review of the literature of the last 25 years.
Expert review of anticancer therapy, 2020Co-Authors: Leonardo Muratori, Elena Trevisi, Marco Donatello Delcuratolo, Paola Sperone, Massimo Di MaioAbstract:INTRODUCTION Luteinized Thecoma (Thecomatosis) with sclerosing peritonitis (LTSP) is a very uncommon syndrome, characterized by the presence of single or bilateral ovarian Thecomas and peritoneal fibrotic lesions. The disease occurs in young women and it can lead to peritoneal fibrosis and bowel obstruction. The pathogenesis of this syndrome remains still largely unknown. Surgery represents the cornerstone of treatment, but resection alone does not always allow a complete disease control. Attempts at medical treatments have been reported in recent years, but a real standard therapy has not yet been defined. AREAS COVERED We performed a systematic review of literature, collecting all the papers that reported cases of LTSP, since its first description in 1994. We found that, in these 25 years, less than 50 cases have been described in literature. EXPERT OPINION Along with the established role of surgery, adjuvant treatment with hormonal agents, in particular in estrogen receptor expression, seems to be a promising approach. However, more efforts must be carried out to describe treatment and outcome of new cases, improving knowledge about this rare condition.

Ovarian Thecoma-fibroma groups: clinical and sonographic features with pathological comparison.
Journal of ovarian research, 2016Co-Authors: Hui Chen, Yan Liu, Li-fei Shen, Mei-jiao Jiang, Zhi-fang Yang, Guo-ping FangAbstract:Background Ovarian Thecoma-fibroma groups (OTFG) are uncommon sex cord-stromal neoplasms. The objective of the study was to demonstrate clinical and sonographic features of OTFG and compare with surgical histopathology.
