Abstract
Abstract: Objective: To investigate the histopathologically, diagnostic
measure and prognosis of Struma Ovarii (SO). Design and Setting:From
Jan.2009 to Jan.2022, the general clinical data, results of laboratory
examinations, surgical and histopathological test results of 11
patients, age 25-66 years, mean45.5 years old, with struma ovary in the
department of Gynecoloy in The Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan
University, were analyzed retrospectively. Population or Sample:1
Struma Ovarii (SO) cases. Methods: Methods Clinical data of 11 Struma
Ovarii (SO) cases were retrospectively studied, analyzed the
histopathologically, diagnostic measure and prognosis of (SO). In this
study, the procedure followed in line with our hospital customized
ethical standards, and with the signing of informed consent in clinical
research which obtained a informed consent from the patients. Results:
The clinical manifestations of these patients were pelvic mass,
bloating, breathing difficulty, peritoneal dropsy, pelvic mass and the
CA125 levels may be elevated. Conclusions: Struma Ovarii is a highly
specific ovarian teratoma, mostly benign. Struma Ovarii is rare in
clinical because its no obvious clinical feature and characteristics
preoperative and intraoperative diagnosis was difficult. Its
preoperative misdiagnosis rate is high but the malignant transformation
rate is very low, prognosis good for most of patients. Intraoperative
frozen histopathological examination for early diagnosis can avoid
unnecessary surgery to expand. Serial measurement of serum thyroglobulin
is a sensitive and cost-effective follow-up tool. A period of at least
10 years is recommended.
