Q

Treatment of psammoma carcinoma with mets less than 1 cm in size?

A

Surgical management/debulking

rare histologic subtype of serous carcinoma originating in the ovary or peritoneum, characterized by massive psammoma body formation, invasiveness, and low-grade differentiation. Its clinical behavior appears similar to that of serous borderline tumors rather than that of typical invasive serous carcinomas (AW)

Q

Which ovarian germ cell tumor is most common in a patient with gonadal dysgenesis?

A

Dysgerminoma

small percentage of Dysgerminoma associated with disorders of sexual development with a Y chromosome–containing karyotype. In this situation the tumor may be associated with gonadoblastoma

Q

What is the classic histologic appearance of dysgerminoma?

A

nests and cords of ovoid to polygonal cells (primitive germ cells), with clear to pale eosinophilic cytoplasm and prominent cytoplasmic borders, enlarged hyperchromatic nuclei.
Fibrous septae containing lymphocytes separate nests of tumor=extensive lymphocytic infiltrate

The “blue balls” nuclei are lymphocytes
(Also blue balls —-> gonadoblastoma —> dysgerminoma malignancy)

Q

What is the treatment for endodermal sinus tumor (AKA yolk sac tumor)

A

Surgery, chemo BEP (bleo, etopo, cisplatin 3 cycles good risk / 4 cycles poor risk)

Good risk – Stage IA disease
Intermediate risk – Stage IC to III
Poor risk – Stage IV

19
Q

What tumor marker does embryonal carcinoma make?

A

hcg

20
Q

What are immature teratomas graded on?

A

Immature neural elements

JS: Grade 1: Immature elements </=1 per low-power field per slide
Grade 2: >1, <4 LPF per slide
Grade 3:>4 LPF

21
Q

Which germ cell tumors do not secrete AFP? (repeat)

A

Dysgerminoma, nongestational choriocarcinoma

22
Q

What ovarian tumor is associated with Peutz-Jeghers?

A

Sex cord tumor with annular tubules

(Ovarian - sex cord stromal w annual tubules, Cervix - adenoma malignum, Ovarian - Granulosa theca)

23
Q

What’s the most common cancer to present w/ hemoperitoneum?

A

Granulosa cell

24
Q

What would adding TVUS do to elevated CA-125 screening value?
a) increase sensitivity
b) decrease sensitivity
c) increase specifcity
d) decrease specificity

A

c) increase sensitivity

25
Q

Staining if ovarian met from colon

A

CK7- CK 20+ metastatic colon cancer

CK7+ CK20+ Ovarian mucinous
CK7+ CK20- Endometrial
CK7+ CK20- HGSOC

26
Q

Poor ovca prognostic factor

A

VEGF-D –assoc with higher stage, LVSI, LN (angiogensis and lymphangiogensis)

(JS) VEGF-A, C, D all are poor prognositc factors. Not much out there for B or E.

A= angiogenesis (also ascites)
C= lymphangiogensis
D= angio + lymphangio (this is why it has the worst prognosis out of the other 2)

27
Q

Non-epithelial ovarian cancer that sometimes needs secondary cytoreduction

A

Immature teratoma (THIS ONE). Cases where pt received adj chemo for immature teratoma and have bulky residual even w/ normaliztion of negtive markers; reasonable to do surgery; sometimes path during secondary debulk will not be malignant then observe, if malignant viable tissue then addtll chemo

28
Q

Napsin A (IHC stain) is associated with which ovarian CA histology

A

Clear cell ovarian carcinoma

It’s CLEAR I need a NAPsin

29
Q

Most likely associated with lymph node mets?
A. Dysgerminoma
B. Sertoli-leydig
C. Granulosa cell
D. Immature teratoma

A

A. Dysgerminoma (28%) - very chemosensitive
mixed germ cell (16%), malignant teratoma (8%) - uptodate
Rare LN involvement in sex cord stromal tumors

JS: saw another question that included endometrioid option…thoughts?

30
Q

Non-epithelial ovarian cancer that sometimes needs secondary cytoreduction

A

Immature teratoma. Cases where pt received adj chemo for immature teratoma and have bulky residual even w/ normaliztion of neg markers; reasonable to do surgery; sometimes path during secondary debulk will not be malignant then observe, if malignant viable tissue then addtll chemo

31
Q

LMP tumor - how to differentiate nonmetastic vs. metastatic implant
a) stromal reaction
b) papillations
c) cytologic atypia
d) mitotic index

A

a) stromal reaction

JS- implants can be invasive vs non-invasive. Invasive = low-power destructive growth pattern, presence of micropapillary architecture and tumor cell nests surrounded by retraction artifact in dense fibrotic stroma

JS: I don’t like this question, worded poorly

32
Q

Grade 3, IA endometrioid ovarian cancer - treatment?
a) obs
b) 3 cycles chemo
c) 6 cycles chemo

A

b) 3 cycles (based on GOG 157)

33
Q

What is biggest barrier to ovarian cancer screening

A

low specificity of existing tests

34
Q

What % of benign teratomas contain thyroid tissue?

A

10%

35
Q

What % of struma ovarii are malignant?

A

10%

36
Q

Basis of grading for immature teratoma?

A

Amount of immature neural elements

37
Q

What % dysgerminomas are bilateral?

A

10-15%

38
Q

18yo with adnexal mass and positive alpha 1 antitrypsin staining?

A

Yolk sac tumor (AKA endodermal sinus tumor)

(yolks give you COPD)

39
Q

Adjuvant treatment for Grade 1 Stage 1B ovarian cancer (repeated 3 times)

A

Obs

40
Q

Which early stage ovarian cancers merit adjuvant chemo (3 answers)

A
  • Any Grade three (endometrioid or serous)
  • high risk histology (clear cell, carcinosarcoma)
  • Stage IC+

(could also say infiltrative mucinous; however, this isn’t in NCCN criteria 5/2024)

41
Q

85yo had hyst/bso found to have 4cm granulosa cell tumor whats next step

A

obs (very low rate of LN mets in sex cord stromal tumors)

42
Q

Which is most likely to have lymph node mets: dysgerminoma, immature teratoma, sertoli leydig, granulosa cell
(2018 in RED)

A

Dysgerminoma

43
Q

Which type of ovarian tumor requires secondary debulking?

A

Immature teratoma
