Q

Germ cell tumors embryonic

A
  1. Teratoma: adolsencenc, unilateral symptomless unless ruptured
  2. Dysgerminoma (common form of malignancy in germ cells): phenotypic femal, bilateral, radiosensitive (good prog) ++LDH
  3. Extra embryonic: Endodermal sinus tumor: secrete AFP and non-gestational chorio carcinoma secrete HCG
    4.Gonado plastima
  4. 2ry tumors from metastasis (krukenberg) : bilateral? Signal ring cells

16
Q

It secrets androgen musculining tumour amd causes virilisarion

A

Sertoli-leydig cells

17
Q

It secretes androgen at its sex cord tumor and contains male and female cell type

A

Gynandroblastoma

18
Q

Lobulated bilateral, it causes Meig’s syndrome (ascitis+hydrothorax)it is a non-secreting tumor

A

Fibroma

19
Q

Clinical presentation:

A

Usually asymptomatic unless if rupture or torsion causes pain
Abdominal fullness
Irregular P/V bleeding-loss of weight
urinary symptoms if press bladder
precocious puberty if secreting estrogen

20
Q

On examination :

A

–weight
Respiratory exam (Pleural effusion? Ascitis, mass)

21
Q

PV Bimanual examination

A

Pulge mass> solid or soft regular or iiregular if cystic if fixed or not & if there is nodular suggesting endometriosis

22
Q

D/D

A

Pregnancy
Ascitis
Bladder
Ectopic pregnancy
Hydronephrosis
Pelvic kidney
Fibroid
Tubo ovarian abscess

23
Q

Investigations

A

Tumor markers:
CA125 ++ in 90% of epith. Tumor
CEA, CA19-9 + in mucinous tumor
AFP + in endometrial sinus tumors
LDH> in dysgerminoma

24
Q

Other investigation

A

CBP: U&E , LFT, especially Albumin
USS
Doppler; for tumor that may show ++ vascularity
MRI & CT
IV Pyelography : suspect renal involvement
Barium enema if rectal involvement

25
Q

Treatment of benign:

A

Cystectomy: wish to preserve fertility
Ovarectomy : if large tumor
Hyst.BSO: if her family completed

26
Q

Treatment of malignancy:

A

staging laparatomy through mid line incision:
Hyst
BSO
Omentectomy
Lymph node sampling
Pertoneal biopsies -Scrubbing of diaphram
Pelvic washing or ascitis sampling

27
Q

Treatment of malignancy
If tumor is advanced:

A

Debulking or cytoreductive surgery: The aim is to remove as much tumor as possible

28
Q

Treatment of malignancy
Germ cell tumor confined to single ovary

A

Unilateral slpingeo-oophorectomy & preserve contralateral ovary, and it may need chemotherapy

29
Q

Chemotherapy

A

Ised after surgery

30
Q

Examples of chemotherapy that used in ovarian tumours with S/E

A

Platinum:
Cisplatinum: nephrotoxic, neurotoxicity peripheral neuropathy auto toxicity
Carboplatin: thrombocytopenia &leukopenia
Taxol:
Paclitaxel: hypersensitivity reaction, mucositis-neutropenia-alopecia, BM- depression, arrhythmia and heart attack
