Ovarian Tumors Flashcards
Produces AFP
Yolk sac (endometrial sinus) tumor
Estrogen secreting, leading to precocious puberty
Granulosa-theca cell tumor
Intraperitoneal accumulation of mucinous material
Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma
Yellow, friable (hemorrhagic) solid mass. 50% have Schiller-Duval bodies (resemble glomeruli). Testosterone secreting leading to virilization
Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor
Multiple different tissue types - tissues derived from the ectoderm.
Cystic Teratoma - aka: dermoid cyst
Malignant: Most common ovarian neoplasm BUT contains Psammoma bodies.
Serous cystadenocarcinoma
Most common ovarian neoplasm. Lined with Fallopian tube-like epithelium.
Serous cystadenoma
Ovarian tumor + ascites + hydrothorax
Ovarian fibroma
Call-Exner bodies
Granulosa-theca cell tumor
Resembles bladder epithelium
Brenner tumor
Elevated beta-hCG
- Choriocarcinoma
- Dysgerminoma
Lined with Fallopian tube-like epithelium. Most common benign ovarian tumor?
Serous cystadenoma
Most common malignant ovarian tumor?
Serous cystadenocarcinoma
What is associated with disarrayed granulosa cells in eosinophilic fluid?
Call-Exner bodies –> assoc. with Granulosa Theca cell tumors.
What syndrome is at hand: post menopausal: ovarian tumor, ascites, and pleural effusion (hydrothorax).
Meigs Syndrome of ovarian fibroma
MC tumor in adolescents, equivalent to a seminoma but rarer. Sheets of uniform “fried egg” cells. hCG and LHD are tumor markers.
Dysgerminoma - assoc. w/Turner’s Sd.
GI malignancy that metastasizes to ovaries –> mucin-secreting signet cell adenocarcinoma.
Krukenberg tumor
